HAPPY TENTH BLOGIVERSARY to my dear friend and fellow poet, IRENE LATHAM! Couldn't resist the party at her place this week to honor this milestone - she's hosting a Wild Roundup (like the Poetry Friday Roundup) around the theme of her "One Little Word" for this year - wild!
I wrote an original poem with a nod to one of the most inspiring folks I know - thanks for all you generously share with the world, Irene. Here's to the next 10 years! XO
A Little Wild
You have a little wild in you.
How do I know? I do too.
When we stop to look around,
hush ourselves to hear each sound….
You have a little wild in you.
Curl of leaf, expanse of sky –
read each scent that shimmies by.
You have a little wild in you.
I do too.
Grrrrr.
