Soul excavation and spiritual reset. That’s how this reads to me. You’ve never been one to shy away from your shadows.

Reconciliation, redemption and restitution…words from a much earlier poem [circa 2012]
that stayed with me and laid the foundation for this vibe. You have always gotten me, Willow

I’m finding it more difficult to get away from real life and its problems that grab me by the arm and pull me away.
I get it.-

Those little moments captured seem so simple but they can be quite profound. I haven’t walked a dog in years, but there’s a peacefulness to it that I still remember. Neither of my remaining granny cats would ever submit to a walk. Drop over like cadavers if you put a harness on them. Cats…

I love the quiet of the dawn.
Very few people out.
Mostly joggers, people walking their dogs and and nurses going to work.Poems sometimes come to me on these walks.
Personally I think it’s my best poem DUP ceased operations ….
