One Day At A Time Poems - Poems about One Day At A Time

Who could ask for anyone better? If I were cold, you would bring a sweater without me asking When I couldn't see, you were my bifocals so I could see your perfect form passing How can I do it without ya? Maybe I'll get my chance Maybe I'll come up with the perfect words Maybe my thoughts won't get distorted Maybe...

morning’s whisper a touch of sun something outside murmurs the touch of memory love in spring lost in autumn solitude a leaf turned red falls it’s monday time to start again a blank sheet a time for poeming and first drafts i let lines speak before i’m interrupted by errands later the job and faceless people in a long line and unending demands i take to the streets for snippets of life tires sing i live for today a...

Why can I not write? I am overwhelmed By the minutiae of everyday life! Dawn comes, and I awake, but no! I pull the covers over my head And close my eyes tightly Against the coming day. I am not ready yet! When I can avoid it no longer I sit up and dress, reluctantly, Take the dog out, bring Him in and feed him,...

One day is done! Hope will welcome in another one Wet leaves sparkle in the setting son. The rain passes and so does the day Rest now, stop work or play It's a time to reflect and to pray. Fear not the change, nor the dark, One can still walk in the park But let love, peace and joy be your mark. Can you...

When night falls to end the day, I know some relief is on the way For I had peace while I slept, Although in my dreams I still wept Loved ones close, have drifted away and distance with ones who stayed Strangers now help me cope Sharing stories of recovery and hope One day this will be in the past One day I...

Have you ever been brought to your...

Been told by others the following: You are weak You will fail You will not achieve The funny thing For a moment I actually believed I had to find out on my own Just how strong I am I drew out my plans Stood tall as a man Soon I would understand When I didn't think it was okay to be on medication Now I realize...

One Day At A Time As we consider all our days just like we have forever. Forgetting every now and then our days all run together. Making plans along the way saving sunshine for tomorrow Never knowing what's in store be it happiness or sorrow. Forgotten questions once we asked when life was so demanding. Answered time and time again still we lack understanding. Counting each day as...
