Poems and Notes

The prompt is 'poems and notes'. Some short  notelike forms were suggested. I used them all. First a Tanaka (5-7-5-7-7 syllables per line.) Then 3 cinquains (a 5 line form) a part of speech cinquain(1 noun-2 adjectives-3 -ing action words-4 word phrase-1 synonym for the 1st noun), a word count cinquain (1-2-3-4-1) and a syllable count cinquain (2-4-6-8-2)

'He is a nice boy
Everybody likes him
But he's a dreamer 
He needs to apply himself'
~a note from every teacher~
Guitar
Sonorous earthly
Practicing playing singing 
Down on the corner
Instrument
Instrumental
A doorway
Portal to joy
Floodgate for heart songs
Vital
Poems
Bleeding worship 
Push against injustice
Redrafting myself with scribbles
Healing
