Post No. 098: Dedicated To The Ones I Love, Part 17 — "It's Gonna Be A Great Day!"

"It's Gonna Be A Great Day!"

In each and every way, you
can always have "a great day,"
just as soon as you learn how
to make things go your way!

So, if anything is problematic,
simply turn to "mathematics,"
because every occasion is a
chance to solve an equation!

-Paul Whiting
(a.k.a., Small All White in the Forest)
"I am no barrier to its sun; the light and I are as one!"

My Poetic Notes:

The reason that I wrote this poem can be summed up with the following statement: This poem was inspired by the song "(It's Gonna Be A) Great Day" written by Vincent Youmans, Edward Eliscu and Billy Rose, and performed by Barbra Streisand, from the film "Funny Lady," which is the sequel to the film "Funny Girl," both of which are two of my favorite films! (Please see the hyperlink below for the video.)

This poem was written in Portland, Oregon.

And this poem was also published on my "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer" blog (please see the hyperlink below for the blog), since I feel that the message in this poem applies to the message that I am trying to convey through "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer."
