Both poems captured me. Love how “Hospitality” gently guides us through kinder ways/thoughts

Through sadness.

You certainly did.

You successfully climbed through writers block to take a look and minimize it by describing it

as “just geography” as you changed locations.

So glad you are feeling somewhat better sans energy!

I believe you’ve emerged with even more creativity!

Thank you for holding that belief for me, Looocinda, and for reading the poems with such sisterly love and friendship. ❤️

Elizabeth, Finally getting to read through the backlog of your posts which I had to ignore this past monthy while being way too busy--not to mention driving too much. Loved both of these! Glad you are on the mend and hope to see you soon!

That was really a lot of fun, the bossy one, the 'can't write' one and the prose at the end. Although it's meta stuff, writing about writing, it's necessary for all of us. thanks

Life gets a little meta every now and then, and so does writing. Thanks for reading, Weston.

Honored and delighted to have a poem of mine shared with your yoga class, AP. It makes me so happy to know that they're out in the world talking with new friends. Thank you for reading, and for showing it around.
