My blog is a bit of a poem-diary as years go by...
sometimes it's interesting to look back and see what I wrote on this date

we can always only do what the day/season we are in allows.
The trick is seizing the opportunities as they come

greener then
Or touch the place that seems so fine as we retrace its
blurred design
And we cannot return to where we threw echoes into the

Nor by the might of wish incite what drew away by day and

Or by the charge of thought revoke the rules we broke, the
words we spoke
Where what we leave behind still weaves
The scenes we’ll rewind on some far-off winter’s eve
