Ketchup on crackers,
hugs and loud laughter,
pickles and dew drops,
and icy Coke after.
Sunshine and kisses,
snowflakes and rain,
these are all parts
of my beautiful days.

And now for our prompt (optional, as always). Today, I challenge to write a poem that states the things you know. For example, “The sky is blue” or “Pizza is my favorite food” or “The world’s smallest squid is Parateuthis tunicata. Each line can be a separate statement, or you can run them together. The things you “know” of course, might be facts, or they might be a little bit more like beliefs.
While I know all these things about myself, I can’t truly consider them “concrete” facts. They are more in the vein of things I believe and know about myself. This is actually a little poem I wrote in 2012 so I sort of cheated. 🙂
Peace and love, Elaine
