My Poetry Corner Catalog
Welcome to the My Poetry Corner Catalog at Surviving Life Lessons. Poetry has always been a way to capture moments that are hard to explain. My Poetry Corner is a collection of poems inspired by life, love, family, and healing. Some are lighthearted, some reflective, and some deeply personal.
A Collection of Poems About Life, Love, Family, and Healing
For our poetry writers, each poem includes a Style Behind the Words section that explains the poem’s format and techniques in simple language. Writers are welcome to use these poems as examples to inspire their own creative work.
Childhood Innocence
These poems reflect early memories, imagination, humor, and the simple moments that stay with us long after childhood ends.
Family Legacy
Family relationships shape who we become. These poems explore love between parents and children, shared memories, and the lasting impact of family bonds.
Love and Connection
Love shows up in many forms. These poems reflect romance, closeness, vulnerability, and moments of emotional connection.
Heartache and Divorce
Not all love stories last. These poems explore difficult decisions, emotional crossroads, grief, and the strength it takes to let go.
Nature
Sometimes healing comes from slowing down and noticing the world around us. These poems reflect nature, seasons, and peaceful moments of reflection.
Animals
These poems are inspired by animals and the simple lessons they offer through observation, imagination, and play.
These poems focus on resilience, personal strength, imagination, and the quiet bravery it takes to keep going.
Grief & Healing
These poems explore loss, change, and the quiet process of healing. Some reflect the truth that grief is personal, layered, and something we learn to carry rather than “get over.”
Sports
These poems focus on resilience, personal strength, imagination, and the quiet bravery it takes to keep going.
Reflections
These poems are thoughtful and introspective. They focus on listening to your inner voice, noticing small moments, and sitting with questions that do not always have quick answers.
For Writers and Creators
Many of these poems include a Style Behind the Words section to help explain format, tone, and structure. If you are writing your own poetry or creative reflections, you are welcome to learn from these examples and grow alongside others who are creating with intention.
