Anyone else out there try to catch the “Poem of the Day” from Poetry Foundation? I get the email each day, and tend to at least open it but sometimes they slip by. Today’s poem “How Wonderful” by Irving Feldman resonated with me.

This resonates with me too, especially the second verse. So often I feel misunderstood. I will definitely think about that differently from now on. I’ve been re-reading Natalie Goldberg’s book Waking Up In America. This poem has a Zen feel to it for me.
