1: I'm here again...

I’m here again
new month, new year
stories, thoughts 
old memories
invite me near to
think
remember
tell about
and
notice
the thready tidbits
begging to be 
crafted into something 
finer
than a pile of remaindered scraps
or a painter's pallet of sectioned bits 
The tapestry grows
stronger
deeper
truer
more intricate, individualized 
with 
each minute
each day
I stop
wide-eyed

to weave

Write on,
b


P.S. I'm taking a page from Elsie's post today.  Here are my initial slices from past SOLS challenges...so fun to go back to older pieces!

2015 -- "Where I'm From..."
2014 -- "The Earring Story"
2013 -- "It's Time..."
2012 --  Slice of Life Story Challenge: 1

  1. I'm so glad you are here again. The way you weave your words creates a rich tapestry that I love to read, then reread again and again.
    Kind of fun to look back and revisit previous posts, isn't it?
