This Is A Daily Reminder
This is a daily reminder
To relax,
To not get angry over small things,
To stay calm.
This is a daily reminder
To relax,
To not get angry over small things,
To stay calm.
This is a lovely poem, obviously written by a lovely, caring person.
I wish my son had this poem before he took his life.
I wish he'd read it daily and maybe he'd have had a wife.
I wish...

Time flies and memories fade.
People change and new friendships are made.
Only the true remain forever at our side.
Eventually the disappointment and pain will subside.
My school does a speech contest every year, and this poem really caught my eye. I'm in 6th grade and definitely doing this for the speech contest. Very inspiring!
Shadows on the wall
Noises down the hall
Life doesn't frighten me at all
Maya Angelou may be dead, but her kids' poems are forever! Long live the kids' poetry of Maya Angelou!

Because I know who I am,
I'm at ease and free.
I can't be like others,
And they can't be me.
This poem speaks to me because I used to have a hard time accepting who I am. This is one of the deepest poems I've read yet. But now I've finally accepted who I am. Thanks for the inspiration.
I bend but do not break.
I've been lost, but I'm not a loser.
I'm a wreck, but I'm not totaled.
I'm fractured but not broken.
I really love this poem! I can definitely relate. Just recently I had to end a friendship, and I felt terrible about it. I felt broken, felt as though I had failed, but I came to realize that...
Treat me with love, dignity, respect and compassion
Now as I am healthy, vibrant and alive.
Don't wait to hear that I am sick and dying
To love me the way I was meant to be loved.
Wow! This poem is so beautiful and heart-breaking, to be honest. My mom has cancer, and all she wants is for SOMEONE to be around. Anyone. But I get so caught up with my day to day activities...

If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill,
Be a scrub in the valley — but be
The best little scrub by the side of the rill;
Be a bush if you can't be a tree.
Two years ago I was in depression and isolated. I felt frequently that I was worthless and deserved no love, no appreciation, no friends. I kept myself aloof from everyone, thinking that I...
For most of my life, I've been on a quest
To discover just who I might be,
Earnestly searching, day after day,
So desperate to recognize me.
This is the best poem I have ever seen in my whole life!
Believe in yourself and you can achieve
Things you never thought possible.
Believe in yourself and you can discover
New talents hidden inside of you.
Believe is my favorite word from the Bible. Thank you for this. It reminded me today of people and equality. Remember next time you get down on your luck that each of us are equally as...
Time goes by and slips away
Just as the sky turns from blue to grey.
We are here but only for a short stay.
Don't let life pass with words you never say.
I was touched by this poem because it reminded me of my relationship with my son. He was adopted and loved so very much. I was with him every day. He had his struggles growing up, but I did...
