Poem Artwork


We all have loved and lost
Picking ourselves up
And trying again...

We have made fools of ourselves
At least once or twice
Realizing to late

We commit to what we believe in
Expecting others to do the same
But others have their own beliefs

Knowing that life is short
We do not embrace it
The way we should

Today is the sunrise
Tomorrow the sunset
Around the corner is _ _ _ _ _

What is most important is that we hold fast to
our own things we embrace. Others will never
for the most part feel as we do as we are all
individuals. If you find the one soul or two
who does you are blessed :)

So enjoy every sunrise and sunset and feel good
about who you are!
Yes Ronald Hull and Diana are both correct and
I agree with them as well. We just have to live
life for ourselves and see what other surprises
others bring us and view it as "interesting" and
a surprise.

Love and Light

It's like a box of chocolates–– Forrest Gump. I try to sample a little bit every day.

The heart of this poem for me is: "Expecting others to do the same/But others have their own beliefs" This is a truth I could benefit from making my 'motto'. The key word is 'expecting,' which is so very difficult not to do. I like your bookends of sunrise and sunset, so that "Around the corner..." might be the middle....smack where balance is found. Thanks. ~~ Diana

These Black and Blue Red Zone Days by Aberjhani

Just as life during the pandemic was color-coded with different hues representing different levels of danger, life in its aftermath has become shaded in similar ways. As a self-styled “Seeker of Beauty with Beauty,” (borrowing from a quote by W.E.B.
