It's the first day of NaPoWriMo/GloPoWriMo!
The following poem is written in response to this prompt, which you can find at http://www.napowrimo.net/ : "write a self-portrait poem in which you make a specific action a metaphor for your life – one that typically isn’t done all that often, or only in specific circumstances. For example, bowling, or shopping for socks, or shoveling snow, or teaching a child to tie shoes." I am the pull of the kite string the yearning to soar beyond to dance in my dreams the fleeing the ground the longing to leave it behind. Sometimes a little hand who understands holds on tight to fly with me. Comments are closed.
