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.

Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet
confinement of your aloneness
to learn
anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.

Prompt: Share with us three things that make your day perfect.
----------------
Since people aren’t things, I am not listing them. Otherwise, it’s usually the people in my life who make my days perfect.
As to things that make my life perfect, being productive heads the list. At the end of the day, I think of all that I did, and if what did during that day is at least halfway productive, I feel my day has been worthwhile.
Second thing is writing. If a day passes that I haven’t written anything, which is almost never, I feel I missed something.
The third thing is doing something recreational, such as planting something, walking by the beach, taking photos, reading, listening to music, sewing or mending something or even trying a new dish that comes out well.
Although one or two of these three things may not always be present, I am pretty much content with my days, as long as I am not sick or someone hasn’t gotten my goat, which happens rarely because very few people can do that, but those who can do that have to get my goats by the herd, or possibly, the queen of my herd of goats.
