Here’s me reading poems on Stacia Fleegal’s Versify blog.  Trying to get used to seeing myself on camera.

Today’s Poem-A-Day challenge is to write a poem with the title: Since <blank>

Since I Gave Myself Permission

Since I gave myself permission
I don’t have to ask for anyone
to give me theirs.

Since I made my own bed
I can lie down on it
just as I please.

Since I made the choice to own my choice
I don’t have anyone to blame or applaud
but myveryownself.

Since I took my own chances on the rain
I don’t have to wait for someone else
to remember the umbrella.

 

Gratitude List:
1.  Plugging along
2.  Discovering past versions of myself
3.  Homemade pizza
4.  Conversation
5.  Synchronicity

May we walk in Beauty!
