Unwanted Anniversary – Conclusion

Friday is a good "conclusion" day, so here is the poem that concluded the chapter titled "Rivers of Entrophy," from This Path We Share. Hope it speaks to you in some way, in whatever space you occupy today.
Rebirth
Enter the Valley of Doubt and Despair
certainly vanished
strength fled
Love no longer there
Spend the duration regardless how long
searching soul
resting body
heart without song
Know, with sureness and trust, once again
you will return to Life
vigor renewed
a fervent amen
Although you may return to the Valley
now and then

Have a great weekend!

Dear Lois
I finally ordered your book today and can’t wait for it to arrive. To have all your writing contained in one place will be perfect.
Dear Lois,
I published your guest post today. Thank you so much for keeping alive this important conversation about language.
