A very young me wanted to be a writer. That was seven decades ago. At some point I decided to become a nurse instead. Soon I found caregiving to be all consuming and writing took a back seat …..for about fifty years. One day, my life was turned upside down and I found I had to pick up my pen again. It seems I have been on a long, long trip and now I have come home.
my busy hands
wash and fold laundry
all morning
while a love poem writes itself
inside my head
