Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens so you can find the one line already written inside you. Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small, bright, and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart. David Whyte

Brand New Day

on March 12, 2019

I chose this theme five years ago
Inky blue sky and far away planets
Daring new steps my inauguration
Quote on “About” gave me fair warning
Step into a river and do not expect
The same current twice

My river bore me along for a while
Waves of bright memories transformed into words
Poetry sprang singing from deep hidden well
Then drought drained inspiration
I’m back where I started but oddly ahead
Brand New Day once again.

    And we are so lucky that you do what you do…
    Beautifully done.

    Thanks, Dale. Without you and the Word Press community giving me feedback and encouragement I wouldn’t be set to paddle down a new river. Also without my children’s struggles that have enriched my life I wouldn’t have new chronicles to tell.

  3. I love reading your poetry. I think we all have times when inspiration disappears for a while.

  4. I’m so glad you’re here
