coda

over the past six months
I have discovered that
it is permissible
to have fun

did I ever know this?

perhaps I forgot it
somewhere along the way

maybe nobody explained it
in the first place

it feels as though
it has taken me
a lifetime to learn
what is almost certainly
perfectly obvious
to you

  5. I am in an exact opposite place lately.
    I am looking so much forward the day when I can rediscover fun and how to enjoy it.

  6. I haven't been over here in a while--life, and stuff, you know. I am grateful again (as I always am) for the simple prose you offer your readers. It is like exhaling. XOXO
