I told you I’d be back with an up date on the writing. I’ve put some ideas down on paper now and it feels good. Obviously a lot of work still needs to be done and I have to stay commited to doing the work. This is a good start though. So the list what got done, what didn’t? Let’s see!
- Write/Start a poem – DONE
- put story idea down (watery) – DONE
- Review death story idea – UNDONE
- edit/review poetry scraps – DONE
Here is one of the scraps, no point in mentioning I’m working on writing and not sharing any of it with you.
It comes
in the air
seeping into
the earth
that cool
chill
soaked up by
roots
Turning brilliant
leaves into
red and yellow
brittle
husks
Into bones
where it settles
shivers
old cotton sweaters
and blankets
quilts
cover a body
frail
thin
dried and brittle
I know there is
a spring
but I can’t
remember it
I see pictures of
flowers but
here in
me
they’ve
all dropped their
petals
and laid
themselves to
rest
Postscript
I only hope I’ve never posted this here before…
