About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write. Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground. Kiya's gift. I love it!

Saving My Today
Prompt: Alphabet Poem
An alphabet poem is similar to an acrostic but instead of writing the name of the poem down the side, write the alphabet and use each letter of the first word of each line to tell a story about yourself. 26 lines about you.... have fun!


Saving My Today

Almost there, my eyes open
Before I rise up, alive,
Come rain or shine
Day of mine
Excited to see you in
Full bloom
Guess I'll refrain from
Horsing around but groom
Inside my bedroom
Joy-ously, as if I'm in
Kindergarten, under the dome
Loving every second, every
Minute of my home
Not because I'm made
Of flesh and blood, but
Perhaps words and lines
Quickly put together
Reasonably or not, to
Save my today for
Tomorrow I may not be
Up and around and
Very alive with words
While the best is now and
X marks my forever
You'll see, for soon, I'll be
Zooming from Alpha to Omega.
