Awakening
Awakening
I haven’t written poetry for 18 years. Today I wrote a poem. Feelings welled up inside me that I had forgotten were there. Water is flowing again in the channel and life is stirring. Darkness is lifting, lifting finally and the sun is blinding. I have awoken and my eyes are watering at the sight. I think I can make out the shape of it. The shape is you.

Whew! May I breathe?
And a beautiful awakening it is! I certainly hope you don't wait another 18 years to put your passion to words.

YO!
Rip Van! Ain't it great my friend? The only downside and I mean ONLY downside to the 'stirring' and the 'flowing' and the whole waking up from the Landslide thing is... that TFP will begin to ride in the backseat. Believe me I know from where you are coming.
