The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.” - Lao Tzu.

Newfangled wonderful ideas are swirling, twirling in my head, elysian thoughts of total bliss and tranquility comfort me, and I am, winding up to begin a new me, oh yes, I am on the threshold ! Blast off is imminent, a new me is opening like a red rose, I have everything to gain_ time to put things into action. I have a plan ! Getting organized is part of the joy and fun, because inside me there is a fire burning, and I am ready with a new purpose and my motivation is at an all time high ! Nothing, nothing can stop my new beginning born from pondering in isolation- I have found the new me (no, not new!) just lost. Now, is the time for this girl to shine bright like a star ! Getting my plans in order- it begins with a first step, one- two- three, setting in motion TODAY, but if I fail- will begin again, then, again ! _________________ January 23, 2021 Poetry/Acrostic/New Beginnings Copyright Protected, ID 01-1323-264-23 All Rights Reserved, 2021, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, New Beginnings sponsor, John Hamilton, Judged 02/05/2021 Third Place

Congratulations on your win. I love your picture on the top and your line, "in isolation- I have found the new me (no, not new!) just lost." So many can say the same thing. It all does start with just one step. Enjoy your win/day with blessings....................
