Don't Postpone Joy by Judi Brown

Judi Brown wrote her first poem in 2008; she says "they have been flowing through me" ever since, and she keeps paper and pen handy so she can capture whatever, whenever it comes. Judi describes her day job as "immensely rewarding;" she raises funds to support causes that are meaningful to her and which help to repair and improve the world. Judi enjoys walking in the woods and laughing with family and friends.

Sitting at your bench calms me and soon the joy begins to rise from within. Like the delight in this beautiful day. Thank you, Judi.

Judi Wonderful poem. I feel like I'm actually there. I feel as if I've experienced the bench, too. Thank you.

Like how the bench faces a "towering red maple."

Like this poem. Sometimes the comments are as poetic as the poem...rhonasheridan--2nd sentence! Good title for a poem.

Of course, this poem helps me think of my mother-in-law, for whom we also remembered with a bench along the Redwood river, not far from where her ashes lie. These word not mushy sentiment, but sentimental in the best sense of the word. Good job, Judi Brown!
