WHY I WRITE A POEM A DAY

In a quest to find more joy in the tedious rhythm of my life as a new mother, I vowed to write a poem every day that year to train myself to observe the world around me. That was 10 years ago, and I never stopped. May this space inspire you to notice the ordinary moments in your own days and find them suddenly bright with wonder.

TODAY’S POEM

The perspective shift of not being Britney Spears

When I see what happened
to Britney Spears
I want to thank her
for reminding me
that when I pop out
to run a few errands,
I am experiencing
what for her must look like
the most tranquil
and unattainable luxury.
