30 Poems for National Poetry Month: Day 4

April 4, 2013

orr4_lgHere is my Day 4 poem:

 

“Happiness is a choice,”

Says my friend Jack.

Whether you choose

To focus on the love

Expressed or the flaws

Hinted at; that’s your choice.

(Okay, you snore. 

Is that enough?)

I choose to focus

On thriving, after so long

Languishing. Now

That I have found

The jewel in the crescent

Moon that makes disappear

The flaws in the bezel of my being.

–Scott Edward Anderson
