  1. Hello, Yancy! Your triodyne is an interesting creation. Glad about the brevity, too. I will give it a go, I think......... thanks for the privilege of reading you here on Whispers!


    Going To The Mall ( Yancy's Triodyne, I think )....

    Shopping is fun
    Paying once; paying twice
    When you wear poorly fitting shoes

    Don't know if I did this correctly, but it is fun trying.......... Sheri / www.poetryandbeyond.net

      Karen's become a gift of love
      Labors for others like God above
      A kind, patient compassionate dove

  6. Ahh, knowing the difference between bad and good surely represents wisdom, Yancy.

    The Triodyne has some of the qualities of a Sijo.

    She

    she lived for laughs and smiles, to offer hope, joy.
    we shared Native art, dreams, theater.
    she loved River Dance, snow ball fights, horses, Richard Gere, me.

    Pessimist

    A person who feels bad, when he feels good.
    Having the nagging fear that
    He'll feel worse, when he feels better

    Optimist
    A person who feels good when he feel bad
    Assuring power of positive thinking.
    Renders illness as non destructive
