Happy 2016! This week’s review is balanced on the cusp of the past and the future…2015 and 2016…out with the old and in with the new! I found myself feeling ever mindful of the present moment. To pause, to breathe and to savor the bliss and happiness to be found in the messiness of life. What a ride! Fasten your seat belts kiddos! Here we go! 🙂
Sunday’s Week in Verse – 3 January 2016
It’s all vanity
Live a life of much less stress
fading petals left there hanging.
Now, I’m not so sure…
like tender kisses
find bliss.
I’m so happy for you…
I think you’re gonna want to see this!
Forget your plans and silly lists
Did you know that is a thing?!
I think I’ll call it “Purple Haze!”
Free souls will spill out.
Jars of savory, sweet spice
The best containers…
life, precious, messy life, is so worth living!

If you’re new to this blog, a bit of background to explain the verse above. It is a line from each poem or prose from the previous week. Lifted and placed in the order written. A snapshot review of the week. It helps me to prepare for the upcoming week with a clean slate.

Thanks PJ. It’s always a pleasant surprise for me too. I don’t plan what I write throughout the week with this review in mind. And yet the lines from each post do seem to fit together and even tell a story. 🙂

Thanks Kathryn! I do this every week on Sundays. It’s a little game I came up with years ago when I first started writing poetry. I noticed that every poem I write has at least one killer line…the one that felt like a gift from the ethernet…and I decided to pull those lines from my collection at the time and create a collaborative poem. It was so fun, I’ve been doing it ever since. I am always surprised at what the week looks like in retrospect! 🙂
