January 16, 2016, Prescott-
God is reflected in the everlastings.
My love for my soul mate is everlasting.
Lemuria and Atlantis are not.
The joy taken from hearing children laugh, puppies bark and kittens mewl is.
The ups and downs of the financial markets are not.
A California traffic jam sometimes seems like it is.
The joy of time spent with good friends definitely is.
The Sun, as vital as it is, is not everlasting.
Beauty and radiance will always be found, somewhere, so they are.
Earth, as familiar as it is, is not everlasting.
The Universe, with neither beginning nor end, is.
The stuff in my cabinets and my refrigerator, definitely is not.
I, in some form, will be- at least I strive to meet with God’s pleasure.
Gary, another creative, touching, original form, poem. The only line I don’t think fits is the one about your refrigerator, which is more mundane and “negative connotations” about you as the poet than the rest.

Some of us find out the hard way that the things in our cabinets are not everlasing! 😦

Unless one buys from E-Foods Global, or has a military stash, this is true.

Exactly. That is what I think the Scavenger Hunt organizer had in mind.
