A magical elixir is needed more than ever
To completely rid the quotidian ills that plague our society
Gun violence now emerging as the most problematic

Angels

Rarely seen for real Such paragon of virtue A divine envoy Embodying flesh A heavenly messenger Ever guiding star Yet they forgather Like a quotidian mortal Blending joyfully

Premium Member Mundane Necessities

Food
Water
Electricity
A refrigerator
Air-conditioning and heat
A comfortable bed
These are just a few...
Of many mundane necessities
Readily available to us 
Things we Americans
Take for granted
On a quotidian basis
Sadly so few and far between
In third-world countries

Time

I remain in perpetual motion with 
no uncertain regard for haste, reliably
scornful of erratic pace.
I am unwilling to change.
Bound by quotidian zeal,
I care not for how you feel.
So take no measure in shallow waters,
or eager plight to adorn.
For treasure is sublime,
resplendent in gold and trinkets of old,
but not in time. 
My face remains the same.

Premium Member Boredom

Boredom

is an overtone of
the quotidian..the everyday
the mundane..as is said
"same old same old.."
seemingly there is belief
of an inequality
showing up on occasion
and labeled as exciting or
not so exciting..
yet..
the root of our boredom
as with our fears and angst
is the concealed culprit:
an unquestioned belief
in a life lived in separation...

Eternal Visions Miracle Man 6/14/2022 I feel the stress of quotidian living, sometimes dwelling on days long past. But in my heart lies no misgiving, and I live each day as if it were my last. Each step I take brings the finish nearer, only God knows when that step will come. Each day my traveled path grows clearer, and I have no doubts concerning outcome.

Premium Member The Push To Endure

It's doubly challenging 
to put on a happy face,
let alone laugh 
through times
of hardship and pain...

So raise a glass with me
in praise 
to those intrepid ones 
who do it day in, day out. 

To those who push to endure
quotidian challenges, 
and push past life's hindrances
without asking...

"Why me?" 
Instead asking..."Why not me?"

Cheers to you all!

Thank you 
for being an inspiration!
