Poetic Virtues and You

P is for the passion in our pursuits and patience in our frustrations. O is for originality, open-mindedness, and optimism in a world of pessimism. E is for the enchanting elegance of simplicity, empathy, and energy in expression. T is for truth where your word is as good as gold and trust replaces doubt. R is for being real and respectful for the words whispered from the soul. Y is for yearning, and yes, always believe in poetry, dreamers, and you.

Lovely poetic virtues, Jim...all are important, but the "R" gives us the safe haven to freely express ourselves. Have a blessed day...hugs, Rhonda
