Here in the Midst of Happiness

October 20, 2020

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is anniversaries.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

A sixth anniversary poem about pausing to recognize one’s blessings:

Here in the midst of happiness,
A moment's pause: How might
People know when they are blessed,
Pressured day and night?
Years pass like some vast waterfall,
So quickly yet so slowly,
In droplets that are grace writ small,
Xxx's for you only,
The moments that you will recall -
Here, now, beautiful.
