Every day for the next ten days I will be posting a poem from What in This World with a few words about how or why this poem came to me. I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them.

DAY ONE:

Do you ever look out at the bottomless bounty and beauty of the world and feel an ache because it is so terribly impossible to embrace and fully experience it all? Does it ever paralyze you?

That is a feeling I so often have and so . . . under the heading -

                                                             
                                                              MYSTERY


                                                     Fruits of life befuddle me
                                                           dazzle me wanting
                                                     Too many gifts on the tree
                                                           twirl and sting
                                                     And hang me up like bunting
