THE GOLDEN MEAN

I'm looking for the golden mean
that lovely medium
between extremes.
I'm either late
or come too soon.
Most days I end up
talking to the moon.

    Look up the word gold in your dictionary. I did and found lots of words I hadn't thought about in a long time.  There was goldfinch, golden years, golden age, gold standard, gold foil.  Can you try writing your own gold poem today?

      Thanks Catherine,
      I loved using golden mean in a poem. It was fun.

      I hope it was good thoughts you were thinking. Is your life in balance? What does it take to get it there and to keep the balance?
