Its Poetry Month Day 5

I have two for you today because well one is a journal entry called Springtime Senses written using a Five Senses form and the other is called Lost and Found in Acrostic form

Springtime Senses

See:
Flowers bloom in vibrant hues,
Trees adorned in fresh green leaves,
Nature's canvas painted anew,
Spring arrives, a sight to perceive.

Hear:
Birds sing melodies in the air,
Bees buzz as they gather nectar,
Soft rustle of leaves, a gentle flair,
Nature's orchestra, a sweet spectre.

Smell:
A bouquet of blossoms in the breeze,
Fresh grass after a morning rain,
Earth awakening from its winter freeze,
Spring scents, a fragrant domain.

Taste:
The first bite of a ripe, juicy fruit,
The sweetness of a floral infusion,
Nature's bounty, fresh and acute,
Spring flavors, a delightful conclusion.

Touch:
Soft petals, delicate and light,
Cool breeze on a warm afternoon,
Grass underfoot, a comforting sight,
Spring's textures, a sensory boon.


Lost and Found

Looking for answers, I wandered alone,
O
ctober's chill echoed my inner groan,
S
elf lost in shadows, a heart turned to stone,
T
ime seemed to freeze, in a world overgrown.

And then came a moment, a flicker, a spark,
N
udging me forward, through the dense, endless dark,
Determined, I rose, found a new, hopeful arc.

Finally, clarity, a path brightly shown,
O
vercoming the past, in my heart it was sown,
U
nderneath the scars, a strength I have grown,
N
ow I stand tall, in my essence, my own,
D
ecidedly me, in every step that I've known.

 

_Below is the AI version using my theme_

Living in shadows, a heart in despair,
O
ut in the wilderness, searching for air.
S
eeking a path through the depths of the night,
T
rudging through darkness, in search of the light.

Amidst the confusion, a glimmer of hope,
N
avigating turmoil, learning to cope.
D
eeper we delve, into the depths of the soul,  

Finding our footing, regaining control.
O
pening our hearts to the lessons around,
U
nveiling truths in the silence profound.
N
ow we emerge, with a newfound sight,
D
iscovering strength in the darkness of night

July 9th & 10th

 I was on my way to see GD#3 in Aurora with my son when he made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Everlovin' was planning on coming down to get me that night after work. I was a little worried because it meant he would be very tired after working all day and then driving the 2 hrs to get me and the 2 hrs back cause we needed to be at the airport at 9:30 or so. My son said that Aurora was pretty close to where Everlovin' lives near the border of Toronto and Markham so he could drop me off and save Everlovin from having to make the trip. It also meant I could worry less about his heart and the fatigue he would be feeling with the time change between Ontario and Alberta. So instead of spending the night traveling dinner was provided by my MIL and I got to sit out under the gazebo and see all the pretty flowers my BIL has grown. I need to say before I go any further that I had never been on a jet before, I'd ridden in a fixed wing so it wasn't totally strange. I was beyon

July 12

 Today we head to Calgary after E is done working. We packed up and checked out of the Sandman. I spent most of the day in a place called Cafe on 54. E joined me and grabbed himself a Reuban when he was done which he seem to like. I worked on the journal and drew a picture of Edmonton before we landed.  Scan and add photo of art work. We had to wait for the network guy while he returned his car so we hung out at a nearby gas station though it was a bit more than that with a car wash and a convenience store. It was a long wait so I grabbed some junk food. I lost one of the things I bought but the 7 day croissant was pretty good. The network guy wanted to stop at a beach called Sylvan Beach on the way to Calgary. It was interesting, one of those lakes where you can walk out a long way before it starts to get above your knees. There was a camping area, a playground, and a small marina.     I walked along the kelp-strewn beach looking for a stone or two, what I found were waterlogged wood

Perhaps I was a little hasty...

 Last night all I could think about was getting out of this town and going to someplace safe and quiet.  Funny enough when I went searching for safe and affordable Peterborough was actually on the list and yes the list was new as of June 2022. Kinda surprised to find that we are actually pretty safe here despite all the stuff going on. I was watching Tik Tok and this guy was jogging down a street in Vancouver, there were literally dozens of tents and homeless all along the street. Made me realize that we do have it pretty good here even with the rents doubling in the last six months. I would rather not leave Ontario but the cheapest rents are in Quebec and one of the eastern provinces, I can't remember which one off the top of my head. This is scary Maybe I'll find a way to curb the urge to run away for awhile.
