Haikus and the like

[Mayflower1]

By: Mayflower

My mind is fire
In Christ my thoughts are Spring
I welcome new birth

----------

My heart is attacked
Feelings are stormy weather
Jesus is my calm

-----------

Love is the greatest
Nothing can separate us
Jesus died and lives

------

Hopefully Spring comes
The Winter ice slowly melts
New Life is Reborn

-----

Winter is for ice
Spring is the season for change
Summer is just hot

-----

Anger is a storm
An untamed tongue can murder
Words of Life bring life

----

Swimming up for air
I am breaking through the ice
Out of fear to faith

----

A man gains wisdom
He listens to those around
Most are quick to speak

----

The brokenheart waits
The Comforter will comfort
The hurting are healed

---

Praise God for His Love
His hand is open to all
Thank Him for His peace

---

Time is infinite
Time is redeemed or wasted
Time stops for no one

Nice to see Asian influence here.

But I love it also. Nice, short and powerful. For a while I was trying to write one every day but they started to sound the same. I will dig them up.

I just love how haikus/senryus are short and powerful. To the point.

 

[Mayflower1]

You are wonderful
Holy fire reign down now
I praise Your Presence

 

[Mayflower1]

Praise is powerful
Armor girded and fit right
Slingshot and three stones

 

[Mayflower1]

Tick tock goes the clock
Jesus is coming, but look,
Many need to know

 

[Mayflower1]

Freedom is Jesus
I am able to lay things down
I am forgiven

 

[Mayflower1]

Scripture is golden
The Words are sweet as honey
They convict and guide

 

[Mayflower1]

God, You are Worthy
Like hundreds of bright Fall leaves
I sing You praises

 

[Mayflower1]

My children are loved
They bring seasonal blessings
They bring me much joy

My husband is an oak
He is strong and beautiful
He brings calm and shade

 

[Mayflower1]

When confusion comes
I praise Jesus all the more
He brings my mind peace

 

[Mayflower1]

It is real easy
My life is a sacrifice
I can trust my God

 

[Mayflower1]

I want you more God
You know all my needs and wants
You give all in love
----

I will praise you more
No matter what people say
My praise is all Yours
------

God gives precious life
God gives me understanding
God gives perfect peace
------

The mind is at peace
My thoughts are captive in You
You are on my mind
------

Freedom is Jesus
I am able to lay things down
I am forgiven
-------

Whatever the case
The enemy may be there
You surround me, Lord
-------

The battle is Yours
My peace is in Your comfort
My mind is all Yours

@jesuslover811 I wanted to tag you here because I saw your post on haikus! It was in the featured thread section and almost responded till I saw teens. I haven't written any in awhile, but this is the writers section if you write other poetry and things.
