We all strive for some perfection
Somewhere in our lives
Whether it’s something big
Or very, very small
I don’t know that anyone achieves it
Or gets anywhere close to it
But it’s the journey rather than the destination
That is the reward
Some people think they find it
And more power to them
But I think life is about the imperfections
The quirks and the questions
So, don’t be afraid to fall short of it
As long as you’ve given it your all
Because no one and nothing is perfect
And we all want somebody and something
Out of the quarrel with others we make rhetoric; out of the quarrel with ourselves we make poetry. (W.B. Yeats) Here lies that which is inside no more, that which burns my mind and must be expelled. Here lies the greatest of all inventions. Here lies words.

A Perfect Day
13/02/2021 – Poem a Day Compilation
Is there such a thing as a perfect day?
Is it just something that people say?
You might want the great outdoors,
But that perfection is simply yours.
Mine might be very different,
So, don’t be so vociferant.
I might want the rainy weather,
Perfect for snuggling up together.
You might crave the city lights,
The sparkle and shine of crazy nights.
I might prefer reading under covers,
Wondering if characters are friends or lovers.
You might want adventure and daring
Coming to together in the perfect pairing.
While I might need something more sedate,
Maybe watching a movie while staying up late.
You might rather steak and chips
Or buffalo wings with various dips.
I might be more partial to a seafood platter
Or crepes that could not get any flatter.
But no matter what it is we do
I know it’s perfect if it’s with you.

Perfection
26/08/2020 - Poem a Day Compilation
I am perfection.
I am perfectly perfect
At perfecting the art
Of being a perfectionist.
