A to Z: E and F Poems

Hello readers,

I apologize for not posting Friday and Saturday. I have been camping and shopping. Today I'll do the poems for the past couple days, they may or may not start with E and F. Inspired by poetic asides and napowrimo.

Equations

There are equations
to add or subtract
or more
but it doesn't have to be just for math
it can be for anything.

Farewell

This is a poem of farewell
whether they are a few minutes, hours
or across the ocean from you
it's a loved one
and they pass away

whether you know them or not
they are family
you can't say goodbye
but in your prayer you can
God listens to you and answers you.

I really like the equations poem, which makes math become about life.

#LoveAThon Mini Challenge 4

Hello Poetteers, This challenge is all about mash-ups. We have to put together our bookish life with a non-bookish passion. It's easy once you know your passion. I love reading and writing stories and poetry. I love music, food and travel. I want to travel everywhere. Backpack in Europe. Explore Asia. Help Arabia. Try all the different foods. Probably with the characters of PAPER TOWNS. They have a good plan in place. You got to listen to music when you're driving or on a plane. UNWRITTEN is a bookish song. Or anything Natasha Bedingfield. Or anything bought for my phone. I just like background noise when I read or write. Yet I like to hang out with the songs I first heard of when introduced to music, instead of the newer ones. Maybe in our travels and meals we bump into my favorite artists and get to do some cool stuff like write, sing or just explore with them. At the end and even during the adventures I'd keep a journal of poetry and what we did. There I got everything I...

In the thirteenth century, the Holy Roman Church has ordered the Knights Templar to exterminate the Passionate, her bloodline. As Alexia fights this new threat—along with an unfathomable evil and her own heart—the Soulless genesis nears. But none of her hard-won battles may matter if she dies in childbirth before completing her mission. Can Alexia escape her own cloc...
