Blue Jay

blue wings dipped in gray
circle nest of hollow shells -
spring mist turns to rain

Rhonda! A perfectly lovely haiku of blue jay, shells, and mists mingled. So what happened on May 12th of this year that sparked such a full-fledged return to Poetry Soup? Whatever it was, I'm very happy for you and for us Soupers who are the blessed recipients. Blessings ~ John

Thanks for all your visits, John. What happened to keep me away is more of a story than why I came back on May 12th. To make a long story short, I struggle with chronic migraines that led to depression that led to me not leaving the house much. The pandemic hasn't helped either. I thought writing again would be therapeutic, but it's difficult to concentrate because of my medication, so I just write when I can. I feel like I can always return to the Poetry Soup community which is nice. Blessings, Rhonda xx
