FOR dVerse
When a child time seems to drag; forever before Christmas comes again. School starting never ending!
Why is that?
However, as time continues and we grow older, everything it seems to be quicker than when we were younger.
Again! I just had a birthday!
Onomatopoeia /.ɒnə(ʊ)matəˈpiːə/
noun– the formation of a word from a sound associated with what is named (e.g. cuckoo, sizzle ).
– the use of onomatopoeia for literary effect.
So the prompt today is all about the sound that expresses the meaning of the word.
Ah, ah Choooo!
God bless you!
What if I don’t believe in God?
Ouch! Yikes!
Gibberish, Jibberish, and gobbledygook!
This poem of mine
tic-toc poet took its time
Not chance, did it rhyme.
dVerse Quadrille with the prompt word EARTH!
Join the fun!
If you ever stepped outside your body; what did you see?
I saw a senior woman standing there, struggling to walk, careful to look where she stepped. She looked up, noticed me staring, and said, “Do I know you?”
I thought what a puzzle.
dVerse is asking for a poem about one or all of the 7 Vices or Virtues and how our life has been affected. Do we see a complementary function between vice and virtue? Is there one, in particular, that has played a crucial role in your giving into temptation? Or one that has provided a valuable lesson?
Confession begins while pleading guilty of all, Pride, always the root. Yes, with each passing day the realization of “looking back” has already started, it is Pride, greatest enemy of my life! I demand, could this be the reason why I have been asking for humility lately? You see today I am older than yesterday, and growing old is a gift. TIME!
Understanding the use of this gift is to arrive at my eternity. To correct a sinful life, while that “stranger” the conscience is always nagging, “pray” it warns, for spiritual wisdom to know my sins and be sorry for them … why do I wonder?
Recognizing time —
a reality of Life.
Vice, Virtue our choice.
Eternity always there
on the mind ever-present.
