On a Lovely, Festive Summer Day

The willow sways in the breeze
       Flowers emerge from their leaves
     Forest creatures come forth to play
       It's a lovely, festive summer day

     Inside my home's another story
       In family quarrels there is no glory
     Why can't my own siblings see
       Today is custom-made 
                            ~ the world agrees

Poetry I often think is a powerful tool that can change minds around issues and become that ah ha moment. Great poem, can't go past a sunny day as backdrop to your message.

Bill Baker Date: 11/17/2021 11:36:00 AM Another clear snapshot of the delima of childhood. The differences between siblings is amazing. Caught up in our own ego, trying to find our self worth; blinds us to the beauty of the diffences in others.
