Durable - ability to exist for a long time!
A Merriam-Webster word for today
that I have chosen on this day to rhyme.
My rhyming time about this word on Saturday.
~
Loving someone is durable
loving as long as we are able
even when life has moved on
there are memories while sitting on the lawn
~
Memories while riding in the car
the look on your child's face
reminding you, of love from a far
off place, where time and space
have no place.
~
That love lasting forever.
Durable until the end and never
ending in the hereafter.
So durable ever after.

Rhyming On The Eighth
In my Facebook writing group, we write a Poem a Day in February (PaDiF). It has been great and a few poetry books have come out of the group recently. We started 8 years ago, at about this time of year. This year two writers wrote poetry books that were published right after February 2024.

Smart phones, Humans and Aliens.
WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.

Autonomy Is The Real Privilege
Good morning, freedom-seekers! Today we’re gonna be looking at autonomy. A strange word, I know; one many would probably look at blankly and run away from on sight. We’re gonna figure out what it actually means, consider how it’s achieved, and decipher just how deeply most of us are tangled up in dependence without realising it.

I admire people who can love this way. My commitments issues could never, I'll get bored very fast 😅😅
So so powerful lines
Thank you for sharing. It's a heartful and warm poem.
Last stanzas had the power of getting my heart ❤️.
Nice uplift in the morning, I love good love poems.
What a way to learn the meaning of this word. Great work.
