Saving it For You


You've always loved a good pear. 

Going about each deliberate movement,
folding the paper,
sliding my hand firmly
along the crease of the paper,
wrapping up love.

Hoping these gifts of my heart
are encased around your heart
as this paper is
around this parcel.

This parcel of small
items that add up to
the small moments
of life we have shared.

At Long Last...



Dear Reader,

At long last I have found some words to write. For a long dry spell, I hadn't any words to write or share. All due to a series of surgeries. SO tedious to hear about, and even more to write about.

One of my many knitted babies,
which my daughter thinks is a tad surreal
Now, hopefully, this period of my life is soon to be over, and I'm finding I do have some words buried inside digging to come out.

Hallelujah!

I had been afraid they wouldn't ever appear again. Now, I feel the tremors, not unlike a volcano, breaking through onto the page.

Much has happened since my last forays into posting. Grandchildren have been born, great losses have been sustained (and recovered from), paradigm shifts have occurred, and all is (still) well.

This next waltz of life, I hope, will bring meaningful, funny, insightful, and worthy words to the page for your eyes to read.

Here we go!

All the best,
Naomi
