Days, weeks, then months
and years drift by.
Not always noticeable, or even
memorable, the time behind us
simply accumulates. All in all,
the sum of its parts leads to
a life well-lived, if you take
a moment to notice.

It’s not about height
or breadth, or depth.
It is all about perspective.
What limits you?
How far can you see?
To what end do you
appreciate what is in front of you?
Looking back is hindsight
and you have already been there.
Change your point of view.
Look up.
Don’t overlook opportunities.
What are your limits?

Secrets are rarely as heavy as
the weight we assign to them.
The gravity of circumspect
plays out, time and again. It is
what we carry as we decide
what crosses, or is held within,
our moral divide.
Sit with it for a while, moved
only when memory comes into
play; last night, or the other, or
any other day.

I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

Today is a day we should not ignore.
A day to the week, with a month
soon to come, a day often unnoticed;
not by everyone.
World Poetry Day is, among other
things, a day to celebrate the written
word, language forgotten, but it
must be heard.
Poetry reflects life, reverberates with
our being. A sense of history, state of
grace, memory or delusion, lesson in
truth in any case.

World Poetry Day was declared by UNESCO in 1999
APRIL is POETRY MONTH
