Notes About The Poem

 

We Feel Satisfied

Oh My,
How Sweet You Look,
Eating The Lovely Things I've Grown,
In My Bountiful Garden,

The Sweat On My Brow Stings My Eyes,
As The Sun Warms My Petulance,
Your Little Mouth Nibbles,
Swallowing The Labors Of My Efforts,

I Pause For A Moment,
I Swallow The Grain Of Salt, 
That Seasons The Sweat On My Lips,
I Smile,

I Realize,
How Satisfied,
We Both,
Must Feel,

After All,
Happiness,
Is Best Achieved,
In The Afterglow,

That Demanded We Do, 
Our Very Best,
So My Little Friend,
To Us A Job Well Done!

Its true fulfillment is found in the simple moments of toil and joy. It is a beautiful reflection of the essence of satisfaction. - Blessings, Daniel
