Andrea I am so jealous of your talent

Thank you, I think :D . Definitely a lot of hard work over the years! I read this one live too and added commentary about why I wrote it! I'll add that here eventually so keep an eye out for that!

I really enjoyed listening to this poem while walking the dog this morning. It makes me reflect on where I’m trying to go on my plans, contrasted with moving through the fear of the unknown future.

It was a nice compliment to the lovely scenery on my walk and the gorgeous morning weather. πŸ₯°

Thanks! ❀️ Not sure if this one resonated as much with people but it was fun to write. :D

I suppose they can't all be big hits. Just let it be what it is and keep moving forward.

Then again, maybe they haven't had a chance to read it yet.

I love the shift from β€œUnsure if I can find my way” to β€œWe find our way.” That subtle change transforms uncertainty into hope.

Beautifully done.

I was about to comment on this when I first read it, but I was cooking and then my daughter wanted something and now it’s like two hours later and I forgot what I was going to say. Whatever it was I’m sure it was very profound. Dang it.
