I am reblogging this post by a friend of mine…
It’s a brilliant piece of writing in its simplicity and lack of pretension. I love when a really good writer just types her heart and doesn’t try to “write”…in my own writing I have found that some of my best poems are the ones that just scamper out while “I” am not looking.
Be sure to read the Thomas Hardy poem at the end.
It’s enough to make you cry for a year.
Awww…thank you, my friend! Thank you for the reblog and even more so for recognizing that this was written in the ‘spur of a heart moment’ with nary an edit.
As for the Thomas Hardy poem, I found it several months ago and just knew it would find a place. Turns out that place was with you, which is more than I could have hoped for. So glad it resonated.
Sorry for my brief comments this morning, feeling a bit under the weather as I head into another work week. You are my bright spot this morning.
Love you sister! xoxoxo
