Proverbs of faith

As sweet honeycomb
Pleasant words heal the spirit
Refreshing the soul.

An old proverb re-vamped.

this. It is also one of my favorite forms. I think I might have used a different word than [bones]. Maybe core, or something indicating the center of the body. All in all, a very thought provoking poem. ~ Gee

Good to see you! I've been experimenting with Senryu and Haiku. I'll try some other style out if I can.

Hope you are o.k - I will come by to see your poems soon - maybe not until Monday!! hopefully before.

Keep safe

Oh sweet sweet the honeyed words
spread out their perfumed air
and touch us all,
and us enthral.

Sweet honeyed words
Spread their perfumes freely
Deep cure

Oh just messing Mand.
I like the thought behind this very much.

Love Ann.

I hope you and Zak are o.k. I have to admit I hijacked the idea for this poem - because I really like the sentiments - so I kinda cheated.

glad you liked it.

Thanks for reading and commenting.

Loads of love
