Virtues



~*Love*~

Eternally yours
A lovely forget~me~not
Blooms where it’s planted
.~.~.~.*~*~*~.~.~.~.

~*Joy*~
Yellow daffodils
Faces peeking through the snow
Smiles through trials
.~.~.~.*~*~*~.~.~.

~*Peace*~
Rushing mountain stream
Such soothing tranquility
Fluid turbulence
.~.~.~.*~*~*~.~.~.

~*Patience*~
Stroll in the garden
Snail creeping slowly
Steadfast in purpose
.~.~.~.*~*~*~.~.~.

~*Integrity *~
A pale moon rising
Always shining silvery light
Just as it promised
.~.~.~.*~*~*~.~.~.

~*Endurance*~
Swiftly moving stream
Salmon fighting the currents
Focus on your goals
.~.~.~.*~*~*~.~.~.

~*Courage*~
Bold as a lion
Fearless overcoming king
Ruling his domain
.~.~.~*~*~*~.~.~.



Aloha with warmest regards, Koko

KokoStewartKoomoa - your writings are exquisite. And so is your art work. I always am saying that one day I will learn how to do this with the art, but oh well.

Bill, The art work takes a lot of patience and time to put together. it became part of my desire to showcase my poetry for a "legacy" of sorts when I became very ill. It mattered to me more to seek to do the art and the write as inspiring as I can create it to be. I can help you with some simple things if you wish to learn it.

Balladeer: That is quite a compliment coming from you. I am glad this piece touched you. I really didn't post it for Easter alone as I had already posted a sonnet for that reason.
I humbly thank you both for your kindnesses in commenting on Virtues. Happy Easter to you!

Aloha with warmest regards, Koko
