Mom and I laughing on her visit to Vermont |
~ I have been doing some writing, and will have another piece published soon, a feminist re-imagining of the Goddess Athena! Yay!
~ We went on two fabulous vacations to Michigan Women's Music Festival and Cape Hatteras!
~ We had work done on our home, including painting it purple!
~ I have finally figured out what I have been called to do over the past couple years. I will soon start training to become a Certified Intuitive Consultant with the goal of becoming a Spiritual Empowerment Life Coach.

Needless to say my writing has been scattered and brief because I have been so pleasantly busy. I have found it hard to focus and would love to have profound words for all the joy I feel...but I don't!
I am so fortunate and grateful for my life and I am happier than I have ever been and although I could get really deep about all this - for now I will just say with a hint of whimsy
this one is for the birds.......
For the birds
Lengthening days of winter are
pleasantly punctuated
by ferociously feeding flocks at my
feeder.
Changing throaty love songs and awkward
advances at the bath
are sly signs of hope for a sequestered
seasonal sonnetist.
But this one
is for the birds.
Cagey phrases flushed from hiding
resist synthesis,
as flitting feathers and fleeting
fecundity
waft away
with wisps
of
wood smoke
and my words
s-c-a-t-t-e-r
on - a - page
like seeds in a snow squall.
