I have never sought to be published, but, I enjoy random and informal rhyming about everyday activities and thoughts. My children and grandchildren gained their personal poem/song as soon as I sensed their unique personality traits. Developing cheers was my very favorite thing about being a cheerleader (? maybe I am published, the pep-clubs/fans yelled my cheers repeatedly at sporting events). I also find energy in the process of writing for understanding/clarity and ‘buy-in’. I did exactly this for many years as a school psychologist; writing succinct evaluation reports with a summary designed to give the reader a wholistic view of a child’s possessed skills and unique nature/personality ; from which pertinent interventions were reported in hope the reader be sold and motivated to apply for the child’s good.

The Shadow

The Shadow
Enduring in the shadow,
Dwelling there by choice.
A refuge of security,
Tranquility enjoyed.

Tucked-in tight from every angle,
In a fortress deep and wide.
No smothering isolation,
Free to spread one’s...

It reads easy and engages ones emotions-it touches upon the human desire for ‘other’ survival and attributes of tenderness, love and compassion; ending with an type of peaceful acceptance for the cycle of life.
