Life Poetry
Life poems instill values and
lessons in life that others can take with them for similar
trials and tribulations that others may experience in a life
time. Inspiration can be found throughout life and such poetry
help make an effort to share the wisdom found in living life
more tangible for the reader. Many times the only way to learn
is to experience learning in life’s struggles and taking note
from others that have experienced life and expressed it through
their poetry.
Reflection Poetry:
We want to know about your life experiences. What lessons have you learned? What is the meaning in your life? What wisdom have you gained on your journey through life? We all have our life changing events and struggles, and we all try to learn from these experiences to become better people.
Life Poem of the Day
THE LIFE WE HAVE IS VERY GREAT
The Life we have is very great.
The Life that we shall see
Surpasses it, we know, because
It is Infinity.
But when all Space has been beheld
And all Dominion shown
The smallest Human Heart's extent
Reduces it to none.
- EMILY DICKINSON
