I hope this finds you well. :)


Poem Artwork

sitting on the front
porch, i am the first to see
the sun awaken;

its light surrounds me
and energizes my mind
with hopeful promise.
sitting on the front
porch, i hear the birds compose
melodies for me;
magical symphonies
i can't duplicate, even
with my best whistles.
sitting on the front
porch, watching the world slowly
begin a new day;
sitting on the front
porch, i thank God for the sun
and birds ... and porches!

(c) 2006, Karla Dorman.

At the right time of the year, and on the right day, the front porch is the most wonderful part of a house. Surely, those who live without one, deserve a tax deduction, 'er sumpin' A meaningful write when everthing's right! - Bill

Hear! Hear! Let's hear it for the porches of the world. I remember some mighty fine times on the long porch of my grandpa's. When we made homemade ice cream was the best I'd say. Good job.

So true and in the words of a country singer who's name evades me..."If the world had a front porch how happy we'd all be..."

It's just as you say Sis. Karla. . . .sitting on the porch of our lives helps us be thankful for what we have, and gives us confidence and a sense of go-get-'em-ness to begin anew as God blesses us to see one more day/evening. Stay true to what you say on your bio page: "I live, because I write" (from what I recall). And hope most of your writing is inspired while

"sitting on the front porch/
watching the world slowly
begin a new day;"

bless you my Sistah! Karen too (((DoubleMint hugs)))
