Day 30… the last day of National poetry Month.
Thank you to those who have followed and read my work.
I deeply appreciate that.
As is my favorite style of poetry, I give you a pantoum.
I will be gathering my pantoums for a poetry book.
Stay tuned.

BE HERE NOW
A day comes to sunset, a story ends, a loved one dies.
A relationship meets its closure, a beginning finds it’s end
And endings make a place for a new possibility
Life is woven in spirals, cycles of starts and finishes

A relationship meets its closure, a beginning finds its end
The in-betweens hold the reactions, the bitter and the sweet
Life is woven in spirals, cycles of starts and finishes
Curves and turns, betrayals and losses, the heart breaks
~
The in-betweens hold the reaction, the bitter and the sweet
The re-start is out of reach in the crush of life’s take away
Curves and turns, betrayals and losses, the heart breaks
A new day gives rise out of the dark night

And endings make a place for a new possibility
A new days gives rise out of the dark night
A day comes to sunset, a story ends, a loved one dies
