The Septolet is a poem consisting of seven lines containing fourteen words with a break anywhere in between the two parts. Both parts deal with the same thought and create a picture.

Kindness
Lovingly given
Gratefully received
Reap what you sow
We rise
Lifting others

What picture did those words create for you?
Here
is
the
picture
that
came
to
my
mind.

And this is the scripture that came to mind:
Jesus is my inspiration.
Luke 6:25
“But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for he is kind to the ungrateful and the evil.”
God’s Word is my go-to for direction.
It inspires me to be kind,
not just to my family, friends, and loved ones,
but also to those who annoy me…
maybe most to them!
Thank you, David, from skepticskaddish.com,
for introducing me to this new (to me) poetry form.
It was fun to give The Septolet a try.
Hey, WP Friends,
why don’t you try it, too?
I’d love to see your word picture.
Tim McGraw sings the message in a most beautiful song.
This is new to me, too.
Have you heard it before?
The images that accompany it
are so inspiring.
You’ll be glad if you
take time to see and listen!
Hugs to you…
Have a Wonderful Weekend.
Always be Humble and Kind!
Love,
