First the WIND


Wind

That it shudders through
and presages an untimely end,

that it transforms the night’s
body and leaves us



breathless and wanting,
petals strewn about,

messenger and message in one,
corporeal hosts entwined,

that it moves, that it blends,
that it withdraws and returns without

remorse, without forethought, that it
increases, expands, subtracts,

renders, imposes and releases
in one quick breath, saying

I cannot feel but I touch,
I cannot feel

“Wind” first appeared in Blue Hour Magazine and is included in my first chapbook, If Your Matter Could Reform.

Or is it a level of comfort, an opportunity for us to continue along in life, not being asked to go deeper, to be transparent, completely open and surrendered to another, willing to reveal or live in our true state of tenderness and vulnerability? There was no way I was prepared to allow myself to be totally transparent, tender, vulnerable or gentle, totally surrendering to another in all that was me and fully letting them in. I harboured way too many hurts of the past and pictures and images of how I wanted things to be, forever shifting the goal posts so ...

TEACHER

Heartfelt gratitude to all the teachers in my Life for the teachings and knowledge that I have today !! Technology will keep evolving but nothing can replace the power of a teacher’s inspirational words… Good Teachers are the reason why Ordinary Students dream to do Extra-ordinary things..

Sometimes our parents also want to thanks teachers cause a good teacher is everything a parent can never be… Thank you teachers for guiding us, inspiring us with all the academic and life lessons, making us what we are today. Teachers’ Day is a special day for the appreciation of teachers, and may include celebrations to honor them for their special contributions in a particular field area, or the community in general. The idea of celebrating Teachers’ Day took root in many countries during the 19th century; in most cases, they celebrate a local edu...
