Her Mystical Ideas Were Foreign

young of course but strong homeless sometimes resilient always she came to us on a Tuesday walked up the hill carrying an old suitcase full of her plays and poems her ideas were magical. they came at all kinds of times while she was sleeping, vacuuming, taking care of the children. She was the most prolific writer we had ever never known. You could not get close to her for her mystical ideas were foreign and did not it into other’s schemata but that did not prevent us from being captivated or from loving her.

She has not written THE book yet. But she is pondering it.

Maybe foreign...but obviously mystical, for you loved her. Great story-poem! I have come to not expect less from you. Love it!

Very poignant muse, Caren! Excellent ink observations: You could not get close to her for her mystical ideas were foreign, and did not fit into other’s schemata. But that did not prevent us from being captivated or from loving her. Pure poetry in quill motion. Love and smiles and smiles of joy forever.

Hard to embrace the things we are not familiar with, usually all the more reason for it. I would like to hear more about her, if you'd like to share :)

This drew me in and made me want to ask... can she stay... can she tell us stories.. and love us every day... My mom was not one of those, so this lovely gypsy sounds so kind. Ann
