Lessons Learned from NaPoWriMo
Procrastination is futile.
Also learned
I don’t need to be in my favorite place
using my favorite pen and journal
my favorite music in the background
with a glass of my favorite merlot,
I can write without a comfy setting,
under the strangest of conditions.
Spontaneity often counts more
than relentless effort .
Though poetry darts by on gauzy wings,
often missed in so much noise,
I learned the silence needed
comes from within.
Thank you ReadWritePoem
for the challenges,
for the good community of poets,
and for much, much more.
It's been extraordinary.

Hey Wanda
ReplyDeleteYou probably won't see this comment. I noticed that in the past you were on my blog. What we have in common: older ladies diagnosed with breast cancer in late 2008 and we both know the meaning of syndecoche.
