Spring has arrived - "A Settlement"

Look, it's spring.
And last year's loose dust has turned into this soft willingness. The wind-flowers have come up trembling, slowly the brackens are uplifting their curvaceous and pale bodies. The thrushes have come home, none less than filled with mystery, sorrow, happiness, music, ambition.
And i am walking out into all of this with nowhere to go and no task undertaken but to turn the pages of this beautiful world over and over, in the world of my mind.
Therefore, dark past,
I'm about to do it.
I'm about to forgive you
for everything.
- Mary Oliver

“I'm about to forgive you”, I really love that line! That tender moment JUST before, not quite there.
Will you be sharing some of your poetry bro?
Smiles and pulled chest muscles, Rich! : )
glad you like it bro, Mary Oliver inspires me a lot.
Havn't written so much poetry myself for a month or two but i will when the mood strikes :)
