Writing Time: 22/30
It’s that
Writing Time
that I love.
First Story Time,
Searching for
An image
to freeze
and take away.
An image
to remake
to translate
on our page.
I sit among
this group
of teacher-writers
and share
this precious time
as we
one-by-one,
make new meaning
with Joseph’s old story
to take it out into
our worlds
beyond this room
beyond ourselves.
And while
I compose
now without
the precious
pen and journal
of my past
the image of that
experience
is still what I imagine
when I think of
A Writer

What a great image and what a great poem. I love that last line.

Now that comment is one great way to start the last day in West Virginia with more rain on the way. I just read your latest.
