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.

Quotes about Life
"Poets utter great and wise things which they do not themselves understand" ~ Plato
"Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing happened. " ~ Winston Churchill
"Behavior is what a man does, not what he thinks, feels, or believes." ~ Emily Dickinson
"A great man is always willing to be little." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Poets are masters of us ordinary men, in knowledge of the mind, because they drink at streams which we have not yet made accessible to science." ~ Sigmund Freud
"The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
"No man was ever yet a great poet, without being at the same time a profound philosopher. For poetry is the blossom and the fragrancy of all human knowledge, human thoughts, human passions, emotions, language." ~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge

The dawn is smiling on the dew that covers
The tearful roses; lo, the little lovers
That kiss the buds, and all the flutterings
In jasmine bloom, and privet, of white wings,
That go and come, and fly, and peep and hide,
With muffled music, murmured far and wide.
Ah, the Spring time, when we think of all the lays
That dreamy lovers send to dreamy mays,
Of the fond hearts within a billet bound,
Of all the soft silk paper that pens wound,
The messages of love that mortals write
Filled with intoxication of delight,
Written in April and before the May time
Shredded and flown, playthings for the wind's playtime,
We dream that all white butterflies above,
Who seek through clouds or waters souls to love,
And leave their lady mistress in despair,
To flit to flowers, as kinder and more fair,
Are but torn love letters, that through the skies
Flutter, and float, and change to butterflies.
