Poem Artwork


Weird, wonderful, sometimes
frightening, the weather
claiming a titan grip
on my nerves, words and life -

to hold fast or let go?

Writing wind, rain and storm,
I try to understand
its power over me
and to lesson the fear -

to hold fast or let go??

it's a way of dealing.
And when the clouds break, we
can relax and enjoy
the quiet, together -

(c) 2008, Karla Dorman (2/9)

I always, well not always, sometimes, well once or twice or maybe once, have thought about....I never ever give a damn about the weather cos the weather never ever gives a damn about me.....

Excellent Karla! methinks there are many facets to such fears, and at times you can let go, while others you cannot. Only you can judge, how to go with the flow...

Love,

But... maybe without your fear, your inner muse would be hidden and we would have now daily words of wisdom to help us weather the storms (of life)...
