About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write.
Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground.

At the Home Front
Prompt: Name five things that make your house a home.
==============
1. My husband
2. Family and friends who drop by
3. Brain and entertainment material: My Books, note-books, pens, E-readers, music players, and other electronics, etc.
4. Things for my creature comforts: My bed, kitchen and food
5. Anything else under our roof; plus, my home is the place where I feel free to talk and think, however illogically at times.
And a few notes from the home front:
Who says banks are hard-core cruel? I think they are on the warpath to correct that notion.
Yay for Bank of America that is partnering with our local food bank!
On the other hand, September is Hunger Action Month and any institution that gets their name mentioned is trying to whitewash what’s under. Still, something’s better than nothing.
I only wish such efforts could be year-round. 
This morning, someone rang the doorbell around seven. We weren’t even dressed, yet. It was some religious solicitation.
They made me decide to vote for the first candidate who promises to outlaw door-to-door religious propaganda on the federal level.
Instead, I might just decide to turn into an atheist, and put a note declaring it on the front door; however, this might backfire, too, as it would draw all the nuts to my door, trying to "improve" me. |
