About This Poem

Blessed


Each new dawn
Just brings me closer
To the things
That I love
And makes me appreciate
The things that I have

Wishing u happiness beyond measure...gwendolen

    A good philosophy. BTW Thank you for your comment on my poem, Innocence. Did you read the poem on the blog which had referred to? My statement will then become clear. Ie Although no poetry form was adhered to (it is "free" in its truest sense), the poem which resulted brought tears to some people's eyes. Therefore, I concluded that it is the poem/art/etc which moves us (not mere formulated rules), which makes for great poetry and/or art. Blessings, Suzette
