Shine
Someone needs you to shine today. So shine.
Throw your unfiltered light upon the muddy
places and standing water, the shaded corners
where nothing ever grows. Pour your warmth
on the pale and the seasonally affected. Radiate
and call forth from hiding, the green armies
of life that rise and swell and salute your light.
Fill the cold winds until they twist and return
as warm and gentle breezes. Shine for those
who cannot shine and to chase away the others
who create the shadows and lead with shade.
This is all you can ever do, and it is enough.
So the purpose of this blog is to be a space to practice creativity. I am currently using it as a place to record a single, unedited poem for each day in 2019. While I attempt to write everyday, I may not actually post daily. Instead, I will post poems as they are completed, but one for everyday of the year. Not sure I can make it, but we'll see. It's fun to try regardless :)
