Post No. 105: For, "It's Time To Celebrate!"

Take The Time To Celebrate
(For a friend who landed his dream job as a baker!)

Whenever you are feeling great,
just take some time to celebrate!
For, every really proud occasion
is a great reason for a celebration!

-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 is dedicated to my friend Danny. He decided to celebrate finally finding his dream job, after looking for over a year, by spending a weekend camping. And I decided to write this poem because I really felt inspired by his persistence in finding work despite all of the rejections that he has faced! And I think that it is really important to take the time to celebrate any accomplishments, but especially the kind where we have been truly challenged in achieving them.

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."

This poem was written in Portland, Oregon.
