our written creations go into the wide world quietly
unnoticed flying into the ether and slowly descending
then comes a moment someone else stumbles upon them
giving them desired attention and form of validation
life feels good when we are in the flow of creativity
the creative zone is where our mind can be at ease
ideas pop into the air and we are riding on the cloud
flowing life force provides all our fuel and nourishment
who needs junk food when we can devour some delish poetry
i saw a little girl
touching her belly button
smiling sheepishly
back into the womb
i flew in an instant
connected in no time
who is that little girl
where had the wind
blown her since
staring into the mirror
at times she appears again
her eyes towards the sky
her smile beaming
with joy and peace
then she vanishes
only to be replaced
by fog on the mirror
hiding an old lady

Here is an audio recording of this poem on Spotify:
going nuts for pecans
unimpressed by cheesy cashews
walnuts in the shape of a brain
good fortune of hazelnuts
pinenuts loved by black cockatoos
brazil nuts from the amazon
creamy buttery macadamias
a hard nut to crack!
