your dose of prose: birthday

A poem a day to keep brain rot away

Join me as I attempt to create a poem a day... whether awesome, bawdy, corny, dreadful, entertaining, fabulous, gross or hilariously hokey, I will try to string together everything from couplets to limericks - just for the fun of fiddling with words!

May 3rd, 2012

Today is quite a special day. I have actually reached the one year mark. I posted my first poem on May 3^rd, 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!

Aging

I've often run the gamut
From euphoria to despair
But now I've found a balance
That's so much easier to bear

Now I know the joy
Of leaving all behind
And the contentment of inner peace
Where happiness is easier to find

Six today

Happy birthday my shining star!
We're so glad for what you are
A smiling soul to fill our days
With laughter, hugs and silly ways
