It’s been a long time since I’ve posted anything. But I have been writing. I have finally organized my poetry with pictures into book form and I wrote one poem every day in February. I’ll start posting those regularly.
Here’s one:
Marking Time
The first of the month
A little new beginning
Resolutions to keep
And promises to make
Time goes marching on
Unseen and unnoticed
Without some markers
Feasts, remembrances
And cyclic songs to mark
Time’s passage.
Crawling first, then running
Like children embarking
On their journey through life
My time,
My hours, minutes, seconds
Impel my scattered heart
To stop and look and listen
Before my time is gone.

Since retiring from Northwest Airlines and moving to the Pacific Northwest, I have more time to devote to writing. My first novel, "Tales of Two Sisters" was published over a year ago. I have been writing poetry for a long time and am attempting to collate my poetry into a short book, with pictures. A sequel to "Tales of Two Sisters" should be getting closer to completion soon.
Gardening and tending the vineyard take a lot of time in the summer. Even though I love the outdoors, these activities do cut down on my writing. So I appreciate that wintertime allows me time to write. Writing, for me, is what brings things into focus and helps me to make sense of the things that life brings. It is a gift to me and I hope that it will be to you also.
