legs
long
down
this mountain
flying
under blue sky
and sunlight
i'm stretching
legs
long
down
this mountain
where roses stand sentinel
in vineyards
and
i won't hear
the word can't,
not today
talk about imagery. you've nailed it, my kendal. and my wednesday felt that way too--like all the banged-up dust in the world was thrown at me, and i just wouldn't hear the word can't.
I love this. We have a spring down from our mountain house which was built by my several greats back grandfather.Wynne Lithia. I love the latin word and its English translation is beautiful. Love your voice.Love this write.

ReplyDeleteI could see you on that road with or without the visual. What an image!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Yes, don't give in to that word, "Can't" !
ReplyDeleteI was always told that Can't isn't a word. I try to remember that in my life and try to live it for my kids.
