A new day awaits
as Slumbrous beauty awakes;
Dawn breaks the tide of dark night.
Amorous sunrise–
stomach filled with butterflies;
a morning lovers’ delight

Oh my gosh this perfection!! I love how you made the Symbi your own!! You inspire me all the time Lori. You are an amazing poet. And get ready for NaPoWriMo in April. 30 days 30 poems. I’m contemplating writing a different form every day…possibly in alphabetical order. Would you like to join for just a couple of days or the entire month?

I love that thought! Another bit of down to earth philosophy. You should set up a page of philosophical ideas!

Definitely not my original philosophy at all! I can’t take credit for that strategy! I think it was Robert Brault!
