Good morning, afternoon, evening!

It’s been a slow pace but I am now looking forward to getting back to writing!  Thank you, to everyone who reached out, text, email, calls!  Your support has helped me through a very difficult time.  I am still on the mend, and taking one day at a time, but wow,  have I missed you all!!

❤

Dorinda

Colleen’s challenge for us this week are the words Slow and Work.  Remember, you can only use synonyms to write your poetry!

Written as a Tanka, my synonyms are Reluctance and Endeavor.


To remain quiet

Shows reluctance, in myself

I must endeavor

To become a voice, be heard

And dare to be different

I watch the candles

As they slowly burn away

Dripping memories

In the stream of hope

A reflection of yourself
