Blog Entry 13 of 17 Simple Can Be Best

There are moments in someone's life that just shouldn't be kept to themselves, rather shared with others for knowledge, wisdom, peace of mind or just a good laugh. I have experienced many things, yet still have a lot of living to do. But for now, these are my stories, a peek inside a life well lived so far - because simple can sometimes be best.

I am time,
withered away, tainted and tarnished,
yet nourished by pale white skin, red
from summer sun, I find my peace.
I am scripted wisdom
written in black ink,
cemented like concrete, baked to congeal
personified exposure to my un-scripted life.
I am unfinished,
molding like hot dripping beeswax, color-dyed clay
re-shaping, re-defining in search for perfection.
I am yearning,
for erudition, books scattered, dusty, torn dictionaries, pages
yellowed from fading sun, words jumbled, I am writing.
I am new and old love,
rusted and polished I shine, hazel eyes, hair auburn red; I am beauty.
I am grace,
mounted on wooden pink toe shoes - floating, the wind rushing through
skinny wheels - roller skating till dark -
I am silhouetted on a backdrop of blue sky lit by the sunset.
I feel remembrance of the past, bleached by the future,
I continue to walk, heels cracked, sand between my toes
on a dusty trail of uncertainties, calling my name -
I am alive.

Thank you Steve! I'm sorry I have not had a chance to write until now. I will be better at it, as I have missed writing too.
