The Earth Still Turns 79.98 KB - A Gathering of Brown Bag Poets
An eclectic collection of world views
by six women who write of the joys,
puzzles, mysteries, humor, and grief
encountered in life—and of the courage
and strength that helps us to survive.
They write of—
… being “poised on the edge of expectation”
... finding joy in changing seasons,
“I reach for a wild strawberry and taste September.”
... warm love, cold hearts, family secrets,
“If you don't talk about it, it didnt happen.”
... a woman, beginning “to dwell on death,”
recalling her tiny footprints inside her daddys
giant ones, following as he plowed.
... regrets of unsatisfied aspirations,
“the shades of time are drawn with sighs.”
... effects of aging,
“Hes lost the tales he once told.”
... fighting fears,
“She stays inside now trusting the roof
to keep her grounded.”
... goodbyes,
“as you breathe more lightly,... ready to shed
your tired body.”
... and how we go on,
“just as if the earth is still turning.” Do you want to download or read a ebook? It is available in PDF or epub format in the source
