Write a New Etheree Poetry Contest

Sponsor. Tania Kitchin

joy in life, hard to find. so tough to keep. it's always sought for, it’s a song that resounds, a blessing that wraps the soul, a mirage that eludes the mind, a fleeting shadow, never concrete, it's like a treasure secretly hidden. everyone wants to experience joy. it comes when heart is hopeful and strong. it flits on the smiles of cute babes. reach out your heart to own it. it is a state of mind. strive hard to have it. can access it, with a heart, full of, love.

Dear sweet valsa, yours is heart full of love, and it is evident through your poetry and comments too, and yes these words are wise and true and so very profound! Impressive how youv created such a beautiful shape in your etheree too! So stunning and what youv conveyed there is also very impactful! One must always strive and try, amidst the obstacles we face everyday, joy is a feeling we find in simple things in life, you are right, too here what youv stated. We find joy in immaterial things, by counting blessings too! Absolute pleasure reading this gem! A fave it is for me! I love etherees and the theme of this is soulful! Sending you light today and always
