Tania Kitchin Poet Haiku

Many Gifts Warm My Heart

on my life's journey
not riding the waves alone-
it keeps my heart warm

blessed by my pets
their unconditional love-
it keeps my heart warm

nature’s many gifts
many songbirds and bright blooms-
it keeps my heart warm

holiday season
spending time with family-
it keeps my heart warm

friends and family
special people in my life-
it keeps my heart warm

Writers' statement:
Life can be full of challenges, despair and tragedy.  I try to focus on the positives, the gifts of every day life that can be easily forgotten or taken for granted. These gifts are special and they warm my heart and soul.
