  • Since it is my wedding anniversary today, here is a poem for my husband Garth.  It is a BRIK poem, for more info on the form, read one of my earlier post.


    Anyway, this is for you, Love Bugg.


    On Our 3rd Anniversary


     


    Things were not always


    beautiful and that was


    just a problem of life


    but they were good and


    secure like milk is to


    a baby snuggling close


    to her mother’s breast


    We have reached a kind


    of Promised Land where


    the worst of traveling


    is behind us and honey


    springs forth from the


    Earth beneath our feet

  • Happy anniversary! Thanks for the compliments on my blog-you have a great one, too!

  • Happy Anniversary. Another interesting BRIK poem. Thanks for taking the time to give me some tid bits of the style. I will give it a whirl when I can devote some quality time to it.

  • Thanks for your comment on Valor on my site. I post new Virtues every other day or so and I hope they may help you if you should need it :)
    Thanks again.

  • Happy Anniversary! It’s difficult to even imagine all the things women go through… weight is one that seems inescapable to me. With some it’s more prominent- not just the fact that people can feel it’s ok (or even necessary) to make comments about a person’s OVERweight, but that we can look at someone who’s very thin and say, “Ugh, why don’t you eat something!” I’m guilty of this, too. But even when it’s not in obvious situations such as obesity or anorexia, SO many women struggle with it. I wish I could brush off the issue, but it’s almost a secret fixation of mine. It’s something I’m really praying for strength to let go of, but…

    Well, I appreciate your response. Your site is really interesting, too! I’ve never heard of BRIK poetry and I hope I can rise to the challenge of creating one! Keep creating =) God bless ~Meg

  • I read this one again. I do like the format & style. There is something to be said about still loving eachother & having a friendship after the initial lust & passion ebbs. Nicely done indeed.
