I’d like everyone who reads to come away feeling gladdened and revitalized,
like when one drinks a sobering shot of espresso. Therefore, espresso is the name
I’m giving these short poems I’m about to start sharing with you.
If espresso is not what you like to consume, think of these as escapades to indulge
in your favorite non-alcoholic drink. After all, we want you sober. *wink*
So please, express your thoughts (expressos) or share a linko in the comments
of this espresso, or stop long enough to simply enjoy a cuppa with me.
espresso No.3 Oh Life it's not as if life was a fixation to be measured with a ruler or graphed/ written as algebraic calculation or like a histogram to be studied mem'rized as naught can give account for serendipity acts of kindness, miracles, smiles and joy
A mirror cinquain + reverse cinquain to make you come away feeling gladdened
because there’s a whole lot more going on than what’s on the news:
like spring,
like life,
like kindness & hope,
like friendship.

Measure your life in LOVE– yes! Thanks for sharing this, JYP A lesson for us all to learn. I bless you.
When one has experienced death early on, each day becomes presious. Those whose lives where short, or long.
Make each day special by some memory of goodness, lovingkindness, or recognized gladness.
Still shifting furnature here, we had family come for less than an hour to move to sheves, and take apart another piece of furnature we didn’t need. Having family close to have for companionship and ‘muscle’ 😉 is a good thing to be glad for.
Thanks for the comment, Jules. Glad you have family to rely on. Blessings. xoxo
Now… but when I was younger, and even in early marriage and young babes… family wasn’t close (by distance).
