I know your poetry will be about things in your own life.

How else could you write so poignantly

But the true beauty of your poetry is how people, us, your

readers can interpret for our own lives.

You are a wonder.

Thankyou

I paused for a while

Just to glimpse

The past behind us,

I paused,

And as I paused, I discovered

That after all, you and I,

We are notpast,

we are the present
