... Been an amazing ride ...


Poem Artwork

Always been a person to start
projects and not finish
them; been like that all of my
life.  See a hobby, pick

it up, only to abandon it as
soon as boredom hit or because
it didn't look like what was
pictured.  Perfectionism like oil

and water:  don't mix.  Not
so with words - given what, six,
seven years ago?  Twenty-
two hundred plus poems now.

Who'd a thunk it.  The
first thing accomplished continues -
proud of where I've been,
looking forward to the future.

Been an amazing ride, worth
the tears cried, the pens
broken in frustration.  Thank You,
God, for gifting me with poetry.

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman (12/6)

Your poems always has been like delicate fingers knocking on the window's glass to remind me that a storm is coming but that after that the wind will dry the rain drops and the tears.
