Life's Finest Work of Art



PAD Challenge day 8-For today’s Two-for-Tuesday prompt:
Write a form poem, and/or...
Write an anti-form poem.

Form: Shakespearean sonnet


This poem was inspired by the driver of this truck
that pulled over and offered a regular biker to his job, a ride
on this clear, cold, crisp morning!
The biker accepted😊💓

(nothing sets a sweeter tone for the day than acts of kindness)

a smile is a gift anyone can give
a helping hand, life's finest work of art
beauty is found, no matter where we live
if kindness is the first-fruit of the heart 

although no hall of fame or gallery
will showcase, what some may call commonplace
no one can leave a finer legacy
than that of love, humility and grace

no name in lights, no wild applauding cheers
for this is not love's mission or its quest
but to mingle laughter and prayers and tears
and thus become the blessing and the blessed

today, oh, what a perfect place to start
to make another Finest Work of Art

Janet Martin


Colossians 3:17
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, 
do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, 
giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
