The Perfect Day Poem by Theresa Ann Moore

The Perfect Day



Sitting in the early morning mist

Trying to imagine the perfect day
Reaching for a pen…getting underway

Making a list

This should be child’s play…

The page remains blank
Thoughts can’t seem to get traction
Seems that all tangibility just sank
Sitting motionless…void of action

Instead of moving forward
Visualization is reversing
A physical presence jumps overboard
Into a sea of memories… immersing

Reviewing hundreds of stages
Experiencing and array of days
Yesterdays reiterate joys of all ages
An amalgamation applauded by today

The perfect day can not be manifested
As a single entity
It is constructed by what is invested
Then a wonderful existence is achieved

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Happy is the day we can look back with only pleasant and joyful memories. It seems like aging likes to remember all the unfortuate things too. We just can't sit back and let things happen. As you point out, we must reach and imagine what brings peace and contentment. Your poems are truly always down to earth.
