The Happy Poet





H- Humble, realizing others might
     write better than you.
A- Accepting with good grace,
     others' points of view.
P- Persevering even when things
     don't go your way.
P- Patience when comments seem
     forever to come through.
Y- Yes, a life affirming yes, when
     sunrise blesses the poet soul
     that resides within you.

For sure; there must be a certain joy, through the writing of poetry, that transcends even the tragedy and seriousness of some topics. I think poetry should be healing as much as informing and entertaining. Well said.

Your words made me happy, Pangie! Had to nod my head in agreement with many lines - well to be honest, every line. I also love the acrostic style. It highlighted each succinct thought. Thank you for your grace filled words! hugs and blessings!
