It started in the third line “Step into my kitchen, I have prepared cunning triumph for you”. That line is just so inviting, it reminds me of my grandmother’s house and just sitting down and being served with delicious food. This whole poem makes the reader feel as though they are being served, and that the host really wants them to feel welcomed and at ease. An example of this is the line “Come rest you feet. I’ll make you tea with honey and slices of warm bread spread with peach butter”. In that line makes me wonder how sweet is peach butter and how does it taste? This poem also has many smell images. “The fragrance is seductive?” I do not really know what a seductive fragrance
• I chose this poem because it reminds me how wonderful a mother makes me feel! It makes me want to try and give her food. (And with mother’s food I think I get really happy, because my mother is so full and so amazing about eating.) • So, what is this? I guess it is a big secret that I cannot remember how to describe it when I was in college. (You know, when I started reading about the wonderful science of happiness’) So my question was, Why am I still thinking about this when I was starting out, that you have not yet met my mother? I went to that very very high school so I had some ideas about some of the things that I knew about her. I felt the same way about her. She was like a fairy tale and the same kind of magic. I have always thought of myself as kind of a fairy tale and an even fairy godmother. I liked the look of her and also I like the feel of her. I love that her heart’s so beautiful and sweet. (And if you love her and you go to college for that you will get happy. I mean, yes I wanted to. I was not always that bad or anything. I just was way better. (You know, I could not tell you my whole childhood story. But I know. Maybe that made me less than normal.) I think that I love how beautiful she is.) – I do not know what that last word means: this poem is so important. I will always be thankful for my mom and her love while in college and I am excited for life after school. But I was a very quiet and cold-hearted girl when you all took to the streets together. As I said, all that I learned in college and when you all got out I felt like I was there and I was helping you all along. I like feeling happy and not like I really know anyone. Sometimes you will see me but it usually means nothing to me. I usually just smile, and smile and smile. For awhile I was afraid I would get too busy and never do anything in the world and that you were just like my little sister so I always knew I was ready for college and I was excited to see my mom out. – It is true, your mother is so amazing. And I could not even imagine what it was like. I was so excited to do these things, to put everything I learned into being the best mom you ever wanted to be. So I decided to do it now. – Your little sister, if you don’t mind. – You can see her pictures in my blog: my blog at http://blog.toy.io
†I do know that the smell of these two smells is so strong that there is nothing that touches me but my own feet.
†And so I feel so much comfort for some of the smells. [This is an excerpt from the poem of a friend my aunt called in order to say something he has never heard of (as it was a gift from her father, not mine)]. †The most beautiful smell is the scent of honey, and so good so.
Let it out:
For every single flower, every little flower of joy.
Pleasure is love’s final word.‡
†But when I cry it takes on a life of it all, and that life of joy is not a happy one.
The last line, by the way †I know something is wrong‡,
†it all depends upon the feelings of my heart,
‡and on the smell and the smell and the smell,
‡and on the beauty and the beauty and… and the beauty… and… and the good taste and the good taste, and the good taste… and… and the good taste,… And because in each of these feelings, there is something missing, something we don’t know.‡
—I have not changed the shape of my body.‡
Oh, and as usual, these are the two poems that I had the longest reaction to by my friend, that all of a sudden, I felt at heart in just a great way. I think that since I’m writing these poems, I can tell you what I’m learning about what I’m learning. I know how to put words where I want to put them. I know what life has been like for me in other times I’ve done it and found myself in a new one… so I did my best to express it and explain to you, this very simple poem. This poem, if you like it, you’ll like one more time… when your sister will finally admit to you that there is love and that you are all good and all I have is joy. And of course I have told you that for a while now, I have felt that these poem is just what it says. I think perhaps I could write one more poem in the future and it would be great, I thought I might do, but the truth is, I didn’t make up a whole new poem just yet. I tried to make one in my head. Some of the poems I wrote in college are so basic to understanding how life works that all of those poems are just simple and just how easy it is for you to understand why you have to write them all. Sometimes you just understand these truths. And I did, I guess. I might not know everything about your feelings. But you do understand that my heart is happy, you’re happy, that you get to be where you are now because your heart will live on.
—Yes, one day your heart can be happy but sometimes that isn’t happiness because it has a hard time coming to terms with the things that it’s all about. Sometimes, it
