Happy April!

I've got friends near and far

I've got springtime in a Mason jar!

I've got hope, I've got love

I've got everything I could dream of

I've got faith, strong and true

I've got springtime in a jar for you!

Live for the Love of it,

Sasha A. Palmer (aka Happy)

Fall (square poem)

Leaves fall

Fall leaves

This couplet became part of a collective poem "Grass of Leaves" prompted and put together by David Lehman.

Live for the Love of it,

Falling (poem)

free for a shining moment brief

fall’s printed folded airborne leaf-

lets sail the blues on winter’s eve

let’s fail with grace, then take our leave.

Live for the Love of it,

Sasha A. Palmer (aka Happy)

Little Sparrow (quadrille acrostic)

Little sparrow in the tree, locking beady
Eyes with me, tell me what you see I pray,
Are you scared? Why don’t you stay? I’ll pretend I’m
Very small, teeny-tiny (aren’t we all?) We will hide from
Every foe… Little
Sparrow, please don’t go.

Live for the Love of it,

Sasha A. Palmer (aka Happy)

Trees, leaves and shadows

 Cannot get enough of them

Live for the Love of it,
Happy

Friday the 13th

Hang in there...

Live for the Love of it,

Happy

November 2014 Poem-A-Day Chapbook Challenge: Day 15

Holy is this fall with its sparkling leaves

Coming down on us from the maple trees

With its dazzling smile midst November gray

Holy is this sun, blessed is this day

Carpe diem, friend, for they come and fleet

Yester days and leaves – dust beneath our feet

But today’s still here, let us simply be

Carpe diem, come, catch this day with me

Live for the Love of it,

Sasha A. Palmer (a.k.a. "Happy")
