I used to write poetry.
I lost a lot of my creative spirit with the loss of my son “Goose” due to the difficulty of connecting to myself again emotionally.
I continue to try and learn and grow from the experience. Part of this process, for me, is making time for myself to be creative again, despite not feeling much inspired to do so, but Spring has a way of awakening the creative spirit within.
I enjoy this time of year, especially as the weather warms and everything is still green and blooming. A simple walk in the neighborhood presents opportunities to enjoy all of the little beauties in the world around us.
Life is Beautiful
In the Springtime
when the sun is shining
and the air is warm
the grass is green
the flowers bloom colors magnificent
I am reminded..
all things re-emerge more beautifully than before
even after the cold dark seasons of life
there is a time of renewed growth
and life is inevitably beautiful again
and the self is reborn.
There are seasons
for everything
but Spring and rebirth
are again
in season
should I take a moment
to let it in
and then give it back.
