Hello. Welcome.

I'm a very determined kind of individual. Sometimes my determination is misplaced and things get very ugly. But, sometimes my determination leads to laughter, deep thoughts, and words on paper.

I write everything. I'm not very good at filtering ... so you will see it all. Maybe there will be a little inspiration for someone else along the way. I hope so. My sister also likes to guest blog and I'm sure you will appreciate her wit and wisdom.

arrival

a rush bursts out,
stretched across my face
a year's pain and delight
hold it firmly in place

words tumble like children
down a soft, solemn hill
and the laughter comes quickly
until all content with their fill

the paragraphs crowd stories
and the words in between
are collections of memories
and run swiftly like dreams

the lights linger,
late into the night
cool midnight breezes,
clothe conversations tight

for what have I waited
and for what do I bring
all the days in this year
woven like love on a string

arrival.

This post was written yesterday, day SIX, but I didn't have any electricity.
Oh, and my friend/ex-roommate Heather arrived. :)
