Today's Verse Love host, Linda, asks us to take a sentence from English and then "translate" the phrase into poetry, such as turn "I feel lost in the chaos of life.’ into a poetic phrase, ‘The heart wanders through the storm, seeking sunlight in shadows," like in Whitney Hanson’s, “In Poetry We Say…”. I drafted several poems in my head this morning, but that recurring comment we all say flippantly begged for a poem.
At the local coffee hut,
The refrain is repeated
Again, and again....
Have a good day!
It's meaning......
May your gifts emerge amid
The meeting, interview,
Class, no matter the tone,
Even if your hopes and
Heart remain guarded.
May you find hope and peace
No matter what the diagnosis,
Prospectus, critique offers
Even as you dreams are
Dashed, again.
May you feel sunshine
In spite of the storms
Through friends, family, a poem
Despite the challenges
This day.
