Notes About The Poem

2026-06-02 Breathless Poetry Contest. Sponsored by: Constance La France 

Breathless

"Paint with paint or paint with words just make it breathless." By Poet
When we stop to think, what makes us really breathless? The colors in the big bright sky,  as the sun awakens or goes to sleep? The cry of a new born baby, being welcomed into the world? As a teen life is new to us, like getting our first kiss? Remember your first Ferriss wheel ride, up so very high seeing for miles? Seeing you walk into the room, will I marry you some day? Breathless moments come throughout our life, sharing both good and bad times.

Yes, there are very many breathless moments in life like hearing the first cry of our baby, having a ride for the first time in your expensive car, watching a beautiful sunrise or sunset....all are beautifully enumerated. All the Best Paula.
