Reading other poets often inspires me, for in their poetic self-revelation I often find threads or remnants of myself. And while in that place I often find their words imbue my creativity. Jean's poem inspired me to write the words below:
Alone can be
disconcerting,
deafening and
uncomfortable.
That is,
until you find
yourself,
and create
a space for
loving,
nurturing and
healing.
Alone can be
a time for:
adventure,
exploration and
reflection.
Its an adventure
to see
how far
this me
can stretch
silently.
Its a time
for me
to explore
and expand
my soul
spiritually and
creatively,
Its always
a time
for
learning,
changing and
growing.
Alone,
is simply
the best time
for me
to become
the best ME
I can possibly
BE.
