Hold my head up high

Convince myself to enter

Take a breath and smile

(I don’t like to make a splash, prefer to blend in with the crowd. Having the attention on me makes me uncomfortable. Here is my vulnerable “grand” entrance)

The sky jumps upwards -

transforms the black into blue.

Takes all day to fall.

Like air, I enter

Invisible, palpable

Silent but intense

Like Naomi, I also shy away from flash entrances, but I always leave a mark. Haha! And that’s how I hope it would be with this group...

take a leap of faith

jumping into the unknown

will poetry come?

Have hit a brick wall with creativity. I fluctuate between giving up or just being patient with myself…..

We vote for just being patient with yourself. No need to give up... the seeds need to be buried underground before they grow 🌱
