Why I Write
When I write, I draw on my experiences as a woman with a painful past, a rapturous wife and mother, a world traveler, and a spiritualist. For me, writing is an art form. Like an artist, the work becomes more than I imagined it would be. When I set out to write a story with a particular idea or character in mind, words I cannot claim as my own flow from a magical and mysterious place through me and onto paper. The work takes on a life of its own; it is living art. The process fascinates me, satiates me, and makes my life more meaningful. Please read my stories!

Day 2 - Love Unattainable
A blue rose symbolizes the unattainable, the impossible.

For Day 2, write a new poem emphasizing just that. (The unattainable & the impossible.)

*Note2**Note6**Note2**Note6**Note2**Note6**Note2**Note6**Note2**Note6*



Love Unattainable

I hold an ocean in my cup
Not one drop dribbles out
Vast sky captive in my pocket
Seams pulled but never pop

Yet I’m an empty glass jug
Sitting in a dusty corner
For all the riches of sea and space
Fit not through my narrow neck

I once touched the velvety plume
Of Impossible Love’s downy wing
But the skittish creature took to the sky
- Never to revisit -

Constant thirst; can't drink my fill
Cruel desert promised oasis
Searching the heavens I yearn for the return
Of Love Unattainable
