Z is for Zoetic

Good Words Alphabetically: Z is for Zoetic

Ah, z end of z month...

I'm going to miss writing a poem and drawing every day.  Perhaps I will continue.  It was a fun re-entry into regular writing for me. Even though AtoZ is concluded, I will have one more poem tomorrow.  Dauntless was my original D word, but I wrote a second D poem, and decided to save Dauntless for last. 

I hope you enjoyed this poetic journey through the alphabet.  I've enjoyed myself, so at least there's that! Maybe I'll see you tomorrow with Dauntless.

 Zoetically Speaking

When I think of words in life,

some that lift and those of strife,

we've little need of high and noetic,

but simpler words, kind and zoetic;

vital to a wholesome soul,

filling hearts with worthy goals,

words of comfort, whimsy, zeal,

joyous words that help to heal,

We should hold words in our hand

for doling out at life's command -

words that keep you breathing, living,

growing you so you keep giving

more of self, decreasing need,

by spreading more zoetic seed.
