~In A Day Like Today~ (Sonnet) For winter,kind of cool here,yes,it was Very nice today,completed quite some,a bit Then just relaxed,reflected 'long,did sit After many chores I've done,took a pause Read in 1927 Dr.Seuss marri'd Helen Palmer In 1927, King Tut's tomb was discovered too Many events in a day like today Befell.Some good,some bad,catchy scar or star. Turn off TV.Only depressing,joyless shows Today,writing here another new sonnet Now,again,for a third day in a row Mulling over,just surfing round the net. In 1877,Edison his crank'd phonograph play'd In 1981,famed,actress Natalie Wood died. Dorian Petersen Potter aka ladydp2000 copyright@2015 January,15,2015

This is quite a unique sonnet. Ordinary days do contain incredible content. I find myself, turning off the TV, too and people wonder why I write poetry. Well...it's a much more interesting place.
