You read
lit up,
laughing.
You read
looking
into the depths.
You read
seeing beyond
what is
to what can be.
You read
lit up
and light me,
too.

(In praise of my wonderful editor, Vikki, who looks at the messes I get myself into, and asks all the right questions to help me find my way again).

Lovely though your poems are Shawn, it seems ages since we’ve had a blog full of interesting things about you, about the family or about school. Maybe some news of the WIP you have on Fb?

True David. I’ve shifted focus on the blog, in response to what the readers prefer based on the stats. I use Twitter for commentary, FB for samples, and the blog for poetry. As to the WIP- until I met up with Vikki today, I was staring at a lot of charts and notes. Got some writing done tonight though, so hopefully I’ll be able to get back into the rhythm and I’ll have more to post on FB soon.
You mean that, you actually care about and cater to what readers follow or are more interested in you’re blogging world?
I guess so. 😉

my hope is that our paths cross someday, so that we may gaze into each others eyes.
Being in the same part of the world and all….
I keep my eyes open, when I get to Vancouver (which is admittedly a rare occurenc). If I spot you, I promise I’ll say hi.
Than there is moderation the hidden approval… my my so cautious throughout life… Where is your sense of hidden adventure darling?
Cautious? Hmm. Sensible, for sure. Adventure takes many forms.
Lovely tribute! Great poem.
A lovely person, who knows just what to ask to get my creative juices flowing past the roadblocks in my head… 🙂
the way I see it here is that is the way a writer would want to create to experience the bliss from that offering felt by another. btw….I’ve finally received some good news as to the stresser I’ve been absorbing. hence that is why I was struggling in other areas.
I am glad you’ve had good news.
