The Happiest Day of My Life-W

It has been the slow and steady race of life To emulate the tortoise and not the hare Using failures as stepping stones to success Not success but happiness key to success. That happiest day was 5th of August, 2005 Not begging but earning the award of Litt.D. From the World Congress of poets (Unesco). First time enjoyed the world casinos of Lass Vegas Met a love not with lust but of the platonic kind. Glimpses of the Hollywood’s glimmer and glitter Of love, life, literature, a brief lust of the loveliness. Sheer joy of controlled passions with peers and poets Conceived of 70 years delivered in a single day. ================================= Third place winner in Contest: The Happiest Day of my Life sponsored by Carol Brown

I'd like to know more about the "love" you found in Las Vegas, Dr. Ram, but you truly deserved the award for poetry. Indeed, this must have been the happiest day of your life! Best wishes in the contest. Love, Carolyn

Nice poem. Thank you for comment to my poem. I'm the last guy who should point out a mistake. But, my wife and I have been to Las Vegas many times over many years. I have'nt been back since my wife past. Las (one s) Vegas. Sorry to point it out.

Dr. Ram, I'm happy you were moved by my "Forever Mom" poem. She inspired a number of poems. I'm guessing, from the title of the poem above, that you're entering it in the Member contest of the same name hosted by Carol Brown. Good luck. ~Jim Meanderthal Man
