Seasons

Poetry is like a river Always changing currents Soft, wild, always demanding attention. October sun fading Blowing thru golden hair Windswept streaks on a face. Never a green leaf whispers As the sweet smelling flowers drift Deep into the heart of summer. I saw spring today Was an awesome sight Heaven was open to me. 3/ 5/ 2013 Tues

Good luck on your training and doing. You have the sensitivity and empathy to be a wonderful counselor. And yes, it is hard to write a lot when we are busy with other parts of our lives. I wish you the best in this endeavor. You will make the world a better place.

Debbie, I guess spring will always be in your heart! I apologize for being away for a while. I can't explain my absence except to say that I have been consumed with outside matters and have neglected my poetic partition. It is funny how that works. Best of experiences going forward to you.
