Sunflower in my garden; photo by Gayle Rose
emerging calm
took a stand
independence
reigned and
I felt good
flourishing
within and
feeling sure
life was
humming
carrying
me along
though one
thing dark
was lurking
still and
causing grief
and a cracking
heart
yet I knew
I could not
change, I
let it go
to take
its time
writing latent
no interest
yet, but a
book picked
up, laid
a spark
went on
vacation
like never
before,
enjoying
Naples
and places
up north
time of
growth
and becoming
solid, vipassana
was my
morning daily,
content with
life, work
was good,
I took care
of me and
I loved you
