no
matter
how much we
try to prolong
the day to make it
last longer, eventide
arrives bearing nuances
of untrammeled virtues, in tones
of splendidly tinged living lessons
no matter how much we try to prolong (it).

This poetry form was first introduced to me by Cara Mia in NY.
It’s a fun poetry form I’ll go to for a long time.
May the end of the year find you in good health and stress free.
May at the end of the year we turn to our stillness within to allow the true meaning of the season to seep in.
I bless you and wish you safe, joyous, and bright festivities: Happy Winter Solstice and Merry Christmas.
I’m a simple woman who dares to see the beauty in ordinary. I’d love to connect with you and like pen pals, I want something beautiful to blossom between us. Will you join me? Selma is my middle name. Its meaning—peaceful, complete, are euphoric affirmations I like to think of myself as having. They compliment the joy I feel when I write. I sincerely hope you decide to join me on my writing journey. I Wish You Miracles.
