I enjoyed reading your thoughtful review of Each Day Holds Some Small Joy. It’s amazing how haiku can convey such powerful emotions with so few words, and your favorite poem about watering flowers really resonated with me. The connection between nature and the soul is something I deeply appreciate too. I’m glad this book brought you so much joy and that you found the poetry both moving and uplifting!

We all have some days where the day is going extremely bad, to the point that we ask God if the day was some kind of punishment. Not really, the poet thinks. Congratulations on the BOTD, and best wishes for future projects.

Each Day Holds Some Small Joy is really nice poem by Lynda McKinney Lambert. The poem emphasizes the importance of appreciating simple and pleasurable moments of daily life. It is also reminder to remain mindful and grateful for the blessings that each day brings. The poem arranged in a several short stanzas like a haiku and uses simple, direct language, making it easy to understand and relatable. While reading this poem we feel as if we are walking through a garden. The poet allows the reader to use their imagination freely and derive their own meaning. I really appreciate this poet and am eager to explore more of their works. I give five star rating for this poem. I recommend this with confident.

"Each Day Holds Some Small Joy" by Lynda McKinney Lambert is a collection of haiku-style poems. The poems are actually the author's reflection of life from a Christian perspective. The poems are dominated by subtle elements of nature that the author uses to express her feelings.

Haiku is an interesting form of poetry and with so few words, requires a lot of skill. Poems paying tribute to nature will be fascinating. I like that the author has followed Jesus all her life. Thank you for your informative review.

Admittedly, poetry is not my favorite genre. But I am a Christian and do enjoy books that describe God's creation in such a beautiful way. I'll have to give it a try. Thanks for the review!

This is a nice personal review. I like how the reviewer described haiku for those unfamiliar with it, and mentioned one of her favorites from the collection. Because she was so moved by the poetry, I find myself wanting to read it too!

"Each Day Holds Some Small Joy" by Lynda McKinney Lambert. An interesting poetry book, talks about Haiku. Haiku is a traditional form of Japanese poetry that focuses about emotions, nature, and faith. This poetry is highly recommended for poetry lovers. Congrats on your #BOTD.
