He Taught My Heart

It’s the last day of NaPoWriMo and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the challenge. I’ve written over thirty poems in the last thirty days, though not every poem has made it onto this blog. I wrote this Quatern earlier today: He Taught My Heart He taught my heart to love again that autumn day he came to… More He Taught My Heart

NaPoWriMo: By the River’s Edge

Wow! It’s Day Twenty-four of NaPoWriMo and I haven’t given up yet. Admittedly, I’m not overly proud of some of my poetic attempts. Today’s offering is one of those poems I considered deleting. It’s my first attempt at writing a san san, which is an eight-line poem that rhymes in a “a-b-c-a-b-d-c-d” pattern. It also… More NaPoWriMo: By the River’s Edge

I had to decide whether to stay in the past where I could change the course of my life, or return to the present where I am living with the… More When I was Seventeen

Litter and debris float atop… More NaPoWriMo: Earth Day
