Poem 8: Age

So, for those who are in the dark, April is National Poetry Month. As a poet, I participate in the tradition of writing a poem a day for thirty days. Some will be Haikus, some will be mega short, and some will be epic.

I know you are wondering why I am choosing to write so many haikus for 30/30. Well, I hardly ever write haikus and have been using the same ones for like 3 years. I thought that it was about time I step out of my comfort zone and practice writing in such a small and succinct format. I figure if you cant say it in 17 syllables you will bore me with the rest of your 3 minutes. lol. I hope you enjoy.  P.S. Expect different things coming from me. I am on a love spree with my poetry lately. It’s all about stepping out of my box this year.

This haiku came from a conversation I had with an atheist that I follow on Twitter. I find that in our differences we are very much alike. I can’t wait to have a conversation with hr as to why she doesnt believe that my God exists. There is wisdom to be gain in accepting people’s beliefs without forcing your own upon them. Sometimes, the absence of their agreement challenges my own beliefs and makes me work harder to stand firm in them and know that I am doing what is right for me. But i still will stand as an example for her if she ever choses to change her mind.

“Atheist don’t see

Christians won’t let God take wheel

What’s the difference?
