Poetic Blueprint

This blog is about all things poetry. I will post my own poetry and write articles about ways for people to write, edit and publish their own poetry. There will be interviews also with poets. There will be poetry tips and words of encouragement also.

Poem by Dana L. Young

I’ve lost my sense of wonder

That awestruck look of amazement.

The innocence of a first experience

And the wow factor that comes with

New experiences

I’ve lost my sense of wonder

And I can’t seem to get it back.

I miss that feeling in my youth of first moments

First kisses, first loves, first dates.

A lot of firsts remain wistful

memories or photos stored

in a tin.

I’ve lost my sense of wonder

I don’t know how to get it back

At times I don’t miss it.

But I still wonder…

If I will ever feel that way again
