An attempt to write a poem a day for a whole year... no guarantees on quality - just quantity!
A poem a day to keep brain rot away
Today is quite a special day. I have actually reached the one year mark. I posted my first poem on May 3rd, 2011. I have had a great time doing this. It has basically become a habit and I don’t really want to stop. So, I am going to continue this thread because I have enjoyed it so much. It’s true that most of the poems were terrible. Some were good (or at least I thought so!) but mostly they were a reflection of something I either saw that day, thought of, felt or heard. In any case, I hope you have enjoyed the ride as much as I have. Here’s to letting the word out – come what may!

Good Friday
To show us right from wrong
You came to give us hope
Proving you were with us all along
But we denied your beauty
The glory of your soul
We simply couldn't handle
The weight of our own role
Now we look and lament
At that fateful time
Knowing that your sacrifice
Was nothing short of sublime

New Day
The sun rises over this radiant dawn
Awakening us to an earth reborn
Calling us to praise anew
Reminding us of all we knew
We've got our lives because He cared
Facing pain and death when no one else cared
