Success is a seven letter word

I have seen the lights
go on inthe eyes of the young
as lettrs and words go from fear to fun

And you play it like life, loose or tight

Small words
you can make on your own
bigger ones need
some help from your friends

Even the ones that pose as your foes

Aunty High Over

Audio Recordings, Nostalgia, Remembering / tagged Childhood, Education, Fun, Games / June 19, 2024 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com

You need a ball is all

and a schoolhouse
small enough to throw it over

There is the calling out
and then the throwing over
and the catching and the tagging
and the laughing, always the laughing

There were rules, you could look them up
they were too small a part to mention here

The one room schoolhouse north of Courval, Saskatchewan
attended by the author’s father and the author as well

Mardi Gras

Haiku / tagged Faith, Fun / February 8, 2020 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com

Mardi gras is near
say colored rosaries
joy is holy too
