One Hour
The Poetry Marathon starts in one hour!
Saturday
There’s been a heavy fall of rain overnight and the world seems freshly washed around me today – a good beginning to a new adventure! Best wishes to everyone who’s doing either the half marathon or the full marathon today; it’s been a pleasure to meet you.
Called to work…can I start my 1/2 marathon when I get home?
I got called to work this morning and will be there until after 5. Can I start my 1/2 marathon then or just post for the remaining hours. Let me know what you think. Thanks Vicki
five hours and twenty minutes
until the start
I should have went to sleep earlier
but I was collecting my musings
see you all then.
Dance on Air
One day she’ll dance on air
When ground
And sky
And water
Are all one.
The wind in her hair
Soft rain falling
She can feel
Life’s rhythm
Flowing in.
She danced on earth;
Now she dances on air.
Faces
Faces in the rocks
And in the leaves
Upon the ground.
In clouds they change
When passing by
Each look
A new one found.
I see the faces
Of all time
Held there
In nature’s hand.
The Painting of the Stars
The first one glows
Alone at night
A monad in the dark.
Then second comes
And third and fourth
And grows the light.
Like fireflies in the sky
They dance
Creating
The painting of the stars.
I want to not do this, but…
I am going to follow through. I have a new commitment to myself, that whenever I sign up to do something or say I will do something, I DO IT.
I feel super nervous, because lately poetry has become something I fear. I used to love it dearly, but after tanking open mic after open mic lately, my confidence has really taken a huge hit.
Part of me is doing this to prove that I have what it takes, the other part to conquer my fears and something else inside tells me that this is going to be huge for me in some way that is unknown to me at the moment, but will become apparent soon and very soon.
Can’t wait
Excited to begin the marathon in the morning. Goodnight fellow poets see you at the starting line. Good Luck
Twelve Hours To Start Time
The Marathon starts 12 hours from now. Hopefully everyone is ready to go tomorrow morning.
