Short Minimalism Poems

But
if
quakers
are shakers-
they do it with style...

The blind man visited you
With the help of his stick…

You let him in.

When he left you found out that
Your wallet has gone…...

It's hard to be minimalistic
When everything seems worth keeping
And I can't keep my mind clean
When everything seems worth keeping...

The dyed bamboo of Chinese finger traps
Should have taught me everything

To strive is to cut through jungle
To surrender is to know
I am jungle...

A tincture
of anguish drips
 inside your mouth-
 held back
when you should scream
and only have yourself 
to hear.

Frugality 

Spending on things that's
really necessary
in restrained manner.
~X~X~X~


Minimalism

A technique that's marked
by extreme sparseness, simple
wilful lack of style.

All I need
Is God
All I want
Is God
All else is a meaningless
Exercise in frivolity
For you can only
Leave this world
With what you came in with

Quaint

gas street lamps;

not too many are left.

Their soft, warm, amber glows

replaced by hard, cold, white beams;

the new  L  E  D  technology
 
of our advanced,

modern age.

MINIMALISM

            Seems Minimalism:
            Life choosing whichever theme
            May be peerless on quality prime.
             At last ends in burial
             turning trivial.

One
told us,
learn from
the flowers 
and birds--
beautiful 
and
thriving--
with 
no cares

joyfully give
be content
love

two coats?
give one away

In your passing
                       I promised love everlasting
                      and now in the seasons return
                                I promise not to cry
                                        I lie.

my needs are simple
when isolated 
from my wants
it took a while
to realize
my many wants
were mere
obstructions
preventing me
from
focusing
on my dreams

Redeem time* to the utmost

by God’s triumphant  might

fulfilling His will; faith-driven

while loving neighbors as yourself.

*Colossians 4:5 Walk in wisdom ... redeeming the time.
