A Torn Tune
I’ve been resting
and recovering
now it is time
to resume the climb
and escape this cocoon
with its torn tune
this afternoon
there is a half-moon
I’ll refill my writing sword
cut the tethering cord
and fly upward
toward the unexplored
to meet my ultimate reward

Heart-touching trio of photos, poem and Mr. Cohen song. 🙂
Yes, not in a hurry…we can rest in between the climb-times…more to learn, more to say, more to do, more to give, more to share. 🙂
