It’s a little bit
unnerving

this renumbering
this twisting

like I’m somehow
not deserving
and then there’s
the remembering

of other autumn days
and ways I had
of reminiscing

and of making
things less, lest
I find my heart
missing

or slighted somehow
in the shuffle of
re-positioning

but no matter
which memory I go down
there’s always still
the wishing

until there’s no other choice
but  the surrendering
of any ideas
of winning

and so I pick myself up
and start again

from the beginning.

You are of the highest value, always. I love how you reset your life strategy, with renewed consciousness. Every morning is a new beginning, we rise like the sun into a day of new opportunities.

Well done and clever.

Love,
Margherita

Oh, my Sweet Shellie, I know just how you feel. I had to do that, too. it wasn't easy to pick up the pieces and start all over again. But, I wasn't about to give up.

I commend dear Shellie to be able to get up

and start again, at least you are not giving up. Take care dear Lady, love.

Those times when we are "out of order", can be rather disconterting and totally discombobulating.

Shel, I was wanting to give you a great big, healing, comforting hug as I read your spill of thoughts tumbling down the page.

"and so I pick myself up
and start again

from the beginning."

~ and that, my dear soul sister, is the mark of a true winner!!!

Love you, my sweet ss,

Linda
