Blogs by Patricia A. Oplinger IF ONLY 4/23/2011 8:38:55 AMWishful thinking and day dreaming are an integral part of the creative life. As I pasted "If Only" into my poetry page today it made me wish anew to be a legislator so I could propose a bill to add four hours to each day. Why? To get it all done.
Get what done? All the matters ringing 'round my brain that I can't seem to shut off right now. There is no other reason I would chose to be a legislator.
The tapping sound of the rain mimics the noise my fingers create on the keyboard and moment by moment I live in a creatively perfect world.
