Haiku Hymn

I wrote this haiku after seeing this picture on the internet. What I wrote sounds like it should be read at a funeral followed by Amen. So I called it Haiku hymn.

I'm entering it into the Thursday Poets Rally
and Poets Pantry 52

I reside on earth

Yet where I belong is hell

You smile in heaven

If you like it please share it

Heaven or Hell

This poem is born of my own opinion of heaven and hell. Although I am not religious I do find the whole heaven and hell saga and tales of angels and demons and whatnot a fascinating fiction.

It is for One Shot Wednesday 
and Poets Pantry 52

The tale of heaven

And of hell

Tells us how

Lucifer fell

You think him evil

Think him deadly

Yet his fall

Was born of envy

It was the free will

God gave to men

That made him rebel

And ask why them?

The angels rights

Were all but none

They did as ordered

Or they were gone

Their envy strong

Some did rebel

Wanting free will

They were sent to hell

In heaven your free will

Is brought to a cease

In hell you may do

Whatever you please

Heaven or hell?

Give me hell please!

Alcohol's Warning

 This is for Three Word Wednesday. The words this week are Luminous, Erratic and Omen

Luminous lights in the club

Iluminate activities of scores

of people drunk and erratic

Dancing on tables and floors

They forget about booze

Tommorow's omen it's true

You'll feel like you're dying

Alcohol has warned you

If you like it please share it

Life's Highway

 This is my entry to haiku Wednesday. The theme this week is Future.

Driving life's highway

Importance isn't in the rearview

It's what lies ahead

If you like it please share it.
