Reinvention
In this season of my life,
I feel like I am constantly
reinventing myself
Since I reached and passed
the age of 55,
I have changed careers,
went back to work full time
I have tackled writing poetry
what next, shall I write a book?
My youngest son passed away,
so I am trying to figure out how
to be a mother to someone no
longer on earth. I have SO MUCH
nurturing left in me, where should it go?
Today I am interested in yoga,
tomorrow it might be tai chi.
There is still time left in my life,
so I get to figure out who I want to be.
