Everyday Inspiration

August 14th, 2009 in Inspiration
By Diane Pedersen

A creative life is filled with challenges and rewards, puzzles and curiosities. This ongoing series of poems attempts to express the “Aha”s and “What if”s, the deep ponderings and casual observations of an inquiring mind trying to make sense of reality. May it serve, for you, as a bit of “Everyday Inspiration” along your own creative path.

You know what?
None of us think
We’re good enough…
We compare ourselves
To some non-existent
Model of perfection
And therefore confirm
Our deficiency.

We should be
Celebrating
The very richness
And soulfulness
Of our own
Imperfection!
