I know I already did a Spring poem, but it is my favourite season, and I am at work trying to squeeze today’s poem in between actual work stuff. So another poem about spring. Also, it is raining today and I’m not normally a fan, but by looking at it as a process of renewal,…

I’ve been drawing sailboats lately, so I thought to incorporate that phase into my writing as well. The Joy of Sail A ship of wood, a ship of steel, Or carbon fiber tech. It’s sails belled with steady wind, Warm sun upon the deck. The wheeling gulls cry loud and free, Beneath cerulean skies. The…
