today...


i learn to love today
a day not like any other
for today’s feelings… were just born
came into the world, within
and asked for nothing in return

just to be

where there is one
a place,  a reason

that they fly

were born and fly

i learn to love today
like a bird with new wings




In a list

Please tell me what you think

    This is gorgeous. I can't help thinking how perfect this would have been for a recent contest I was in.. I know you don't always do them, but this is perfect. It calls for simplicity with message. This so fits the bill.

    I love the uplifting lilt of this. It's so encouraging to look at life this way. Each day fresh, open to opportunity, to flying. A bit frightful yes, but we are born, this day, equipped and ready to experience whatever beautiful things await us. Just beautiful thoughts!

    The beginning of your poem has a wonderful simplicity and the end comes softly, just like new feathers...

      Thank you Mari-
      yes, simple open words make the best poetry i think, some of my favorite writers like Langston Hughes use small simple words to make big ideas...Thanks for all ...PK
