*This poem an homage to this classic tune by Nat king Cole…Not sure if it qualifies, but I had fun. It’s a bit schmaltzy and optimistic. File it under Lighthearted Laughs, I guess?

V is for the sheer variety…

O is for the opportunity…

C is very clearly ‘bout the commentary

A is all of us together gettin’ even better

Love written into every letter

    I like how you took Nat King Cole's tune and made a poem out of it. It's got that lighthearted feel, like you said. The way you break down the letters and tie them to positive things is neat. Made me think about how we can find meaning in simple things. Do you have other poems inspired by classic songs?
