Celebrate
every day of life,
every breath.
Rising sun
kisses blushing earth with bronze—
daily gift of Light.
Victoria C. Slotto, Author 
Thanks for introducing me to yet another new form of poetry. I came to your blog today looking to see if there was any blogs requiring a post today [like One Stop] and saw this and clicked on it out of curiosity. Then searched a little and ended up at One Stop to read more about it.
Strange little world we live in sometimes.

Fantastic result and i guess rather difficult due to the restrictions of the form.
