Not a poem--just a thank you. When I lost my husband last year I lost both my reading mojo and my writing mojo. It's been a struggle but this group is really helping me. The bitch is back!

A Still Life with Dogs how softly now the light settles in at end of day filling in all the empty places between a man and his life the wood stove hisses a dog growls softly on the table a bowl of oranges waits for breakfast

Don't let love make You lifeless. Run hard, Breath harder. Burn, like bowls Of sweet grass smoked. Flower, Find yourself fiercely. Do not look back, Embrace the day, always, Celebrate the Change it brings.

I've been working on a Mother's Day poem for days and can't seem to pull it together. Instead, I give you my shitty morning. Alone Wrapped in a shawl of loneliness, weighted like the draped neckline of a cocktail dress owned in the 80s, pulling me...

A little cat named Ganji, so quiet and so meek. A gentle friend to everyone any day of the week. A soft-spoken little man who brought comfort when we were together. You are loved, you are missed, today, tomorrow and forever.
