Stepping Into the World
Poem: This was spun from an assignment in Creative Writing. The assignment was to write a poem like a favorite poet. I chose Robert Frost. Here it is in his honor.
I stepped into the world today,
it surrounded me.
Like the first moments of departed womb,
the cold sting piercing,
heart center piece,
quivering to the touch.
Again the newness
of Life's first breath,
brings mind to present fair.
I stepped into the world today,
and felt refreshed.

Sunsetting Pride 2024
Happy Pride! As Pride Month 2024 begins to sunset, I want to congratulate every individual who has become brave enough to take control of their life and live as their authentic, beautiful self. This is a month when it highlights those accomplishments. From acceptance within families and friends to acknowledgement in the political arena. Starting with Stonewall (and events prior) leading to the Supreme court ruling for same-sex marriages. We are here, we are queer, and we should never live in fear.
