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!

How nice, CM!
First, congrats on your older son's wedding. I hope he and his wife will be just as happy as their parents have been. You set a tough example for them to follow; however, I believe they must have the capability to be just as happy and productive.
Yes, children do teach...at least mine do in their own goofy ways.
It was so nice of you to share with us what your children reflected off of you. *Wink* *Smile*
