beauty surrounds and inundates everything;
our blindness to it is the only true tragedy
Beauty surrounds and inundates all
today my eyes are open to this
today my heart is open to this
now my spirit soars in beauty!
[This came from a reply to a comment on my blog; it seemed appropriate for a mantra and a short poem in its own right. Be well. Experience the beauty that surrounds you. Experience the beauty that is you.]

every month is poetry month my friend
While I agree with you . . . April is National Poetry Month for us Joe Poets lorded over by Old Glory. Every day a day of poetry. Every breath a poem. Thank you for dropping in and leaving two cents
And your poem reminds me of this quote:
“Beauty is truth, truth beauty,” —that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know. ”
-John Keats
Thank you, Nicole. Great to hear from you.
This quote is never very far from my mind or heart.
Hope your writing is coming along well.
