unfolding
open myself to possibility, life
unfolding
allow air into my lungs
unfolding
let my arms hang down, stop protecting
unfolding
touch, awaken, spark of life
unfolding
move forward, one tentative step at a time
unfolding
stretch, open my wings for flight
unfolding
allow life to breathe through me
unfolding
dance upon the earth, feet engaging, arms free
unfolding
eyes sparkle as life returns
unfolding
let the hair go, release it from those braids, let it fly
unfolding
grief settles into the background
unfolding
grace allows life once again
unfolding
I am here. I am safe. I am enough.
unfolding
We are beauty and life and love

Poetry

Welcome

I've been writing blogs on the internet since 2007. Like my life, my words have wandered from Wisdom or Life Lessons and Wellness, to Gardening and Aquaponics. After my son’s death by suicide in 2016, Poetry became a big piece of my world as I tried to make sense of the tragedy of his death.

In truth, his death took me into my own journey with darkness. I've shared a bit during the last ten years but nothing in comparison to what I've written. Only recently have I started to climb back into life and the desire to share my writing.

These days, my writing is varied and inspired by the moment. I participate in two writing group, one where we write to prompts from a book by Judy Reeves called A Writer’s Book of Days: A Spirited Companion and the other where we journey and then write about our experience or about the wisdom gained. Much of this writing is buried in journals in my office. As I move forward, Some of that will be found under Stories, Magic and the Mystical.

How do you read this jumble of topics? You can read what’s latest, type a word into Search and see what comes up, or select a Topic from the Blog Content below. However you read, I hope you enjoy.

Blessings, Victoria
