When your mother asks you for a happy poem, you write one for her.

Words by Winter: Conversations, reflections, and poems about the passages of life. Because it’s rough out there, and we have to help each other through.

Original theme music for our show is by Dylan Perese. Additional music by Kelly Krebs. Artwork by Mark Garry. Today’s poem, My Mom’s Been Asking for a Happy Poem All My Life, by Jennifer Givhan, is featured here with kind permission of the poet.
