This one felt almost too real and personal to post. It came from a dream I had the night before and I woke up and just had to make a poem of it. The dream is still a mystery . . . as dreams usually are. The wooden boxes were like those an artist keeps paints and brushes in. I had another dream days earlier about taking a painting class, and then saw a seed sprout fall into a pot of dirt and take root. Maybe it's my inner painter-artist telling my inner writer-artist that I need to do some painting. I haven't in a while. Helen and Marion — Thanks, you two.

I’ve posted some bits and pieces, mostly practice and works in progress, over at Spirit Blooms in the Poetry Sketchbook category. Feel free to drop by there if you’re curious. Though I’ve taken creative writing workshops in the past, I’ve never taken a poetry workshop, and I think I have a lot to learn before I go even that far. Right now I’m refreshing my memory with basics that I learned when I was young but are now a bit fuzzy.
