Kirsten Michelle, How should I address you? I got a mail today from a friend and read the lines: Only as high as I reach can I grow, Only as far as I seek can I go, Only as deep as I look can I see, Only as much as I dream can I be. I googled to know who wrote them and was led to your blog. I liked them a lot. Who wrote them? They have common sense and simplicity about them. They say more than the words. My name is Surinder and I live in VA, USA. I am in India on a project for a US company who have operations here. I am 61 and love to read poems and other things literary. Have you written any thing else too? Regards.
"It doesn't have to be
the blue iris, it could be
weeds in a vacant lot, or a few
small stones; just
pay attention, then patch
a few words together and don't try
to make them elaborate, this isn't
a contest but the doorway
into thanks, and a silence in which
another voice may speak." ~ Mary Oliver ~
