Sometimes our goodness goes too far,
you know how does it smell,
Alas, but best intentions ARE
the shortest way to hell.
People paid to read the shortest poem in the world -
An I
and it deserved to win the prize.

Leaven, the Kingdom
of Heaven, meager start, yet
influence many.

That night was the last and longest we ever had
That day was the shortest, simplest and most sad
That drop was a dryer
And the smile was a goodbye
No shorter path would ever exist near our Lord to be than that of caring for those in need!

Long questions will get
The shortest answer I have;
Just so that you know.

Poet's Note:
This is the personal tag on my car here in California. It is also my philosophy of life. Ha!
Loathing the mazy, the lazy look around
To spot the shortest of all paths to be found
For the indolence that in him does redound
The lazy man with novelty does abound
The English language~ lovely.
To crush poetry to the size of a pea, balmy!

If you can take your own
breath away
—and the breath of others
You will live in a world of
magic and dreams
—the shortest pathway home
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2015)
snow deep shortest day
longest night cold earth does sleep
calm hibernation

The shortest poem is a name .....
which is buried in my heart
no one can remove,
the one who taught me wisdom
who is no other than my father
Lutchman Mahasingh.

On Shortest Day bright
our camellia shone pink
alone among the high
grass lawn as most
locally cannot be sane
unless their lawns are
shorn of all hope
as neatness is a trope.
The shortest month has an extra day
Which time often holds at bay
Thoughts of marriage come into play
Women propose to men!

You bloom and beam
and worship the rain
the sun, the Sky.
Flower of beauty,
though fleeting
as a smile,
you're truly eternal
even for just the
shortest while!
If you can take your own
breath away
—and then the breath of others
You will live in a world of
magic and dreams
—with the shortest pathway home

All lit up with festive lights
Shortest day and longest night
The beginning of the end
The darkness gives way to sun
As we start our journey back
We rejoice in the season,
Magical Winter Solstice!
The shortest poetry I ever wrote
A world of uncertainty
Instead to cut off
my mind from reality
I cut the leaf
To burn the flower
All I needed was to
maintain my sanity in
A world of uncertainty
Bubblewrapped children
disparate hope
Spirits in limbo
shortest of ropes
Control and protection
their meaning belies
Tomorrow ill promised
—eternity cries
(Villanova Pennsylvania: November, 2018)
The longest goodbye ever!
What about The shortest welcome ever!
Ever! A big you pardon!
D or B or.. Dove or bird is
An excellent lovely beloved poet.
To her all my sorts welcome/s!
Thanks for showing off that love.
It's time for the warmer and sunnier spring weather
Which brings out young girlies in their shortest shorts ever
Must watch my heart
Rhythm's off the chart
You could knock this old bird over with a feather
It's time for the warmer and sunnier spring weather
Which brings out young girlies in their shortest shorts ever
Must watch my heart
Rhythm's off the chart
You could knock this old bird over with a feather
summer solstice arriving...
longest day and shortest night...
silent trees bloom and revel
in abundant light.
long, light, bright days of summer
winter seems so far away...
darkness slowly increases
in benign manner.
winter solstice arriving...
shortest day and longest night...
silent trees gather forces
for returning light
lighter, longer, brighter days
saunter through the winter gloom...
light triumphs over darkness
renewal awaits
