A Chaotic Video and a Poignant Poem
“Did you know, I loved you most when I’d given up on you?”
A poem about how we feel about our bodies… and the video turned out messy, but i decided to post it anyway, because that seemed true to the poem! Sometimes our bodies and our relationships with them are a little messy and chaotic!

A new poem- “Zephyr” and a quick update on book progress!
มุมมอง 132 ปีที่แล้ว
I haven’t posted a video in a while, partially because of busy work and life circumstances, and partially because new writing takes a backseat when there is a manuscript of existing work to be edited and produced… But here’s a quick poem and a quick update from the seclusion of a mountain cabin, with actual chestnuts roasting on an open fire! 🌰🔥🏡

    Beautiful, almost bringing me to tears & in a good way. The guitar was a bit too loud, but both poems were excellent, and worked so well together, & for Easter too!

    Miriam, that was a beautiful poem, and I really enjoyed it. I think it takes a lot of courage to share your gift with the world, Thank you so much for being apart of the "Beautiful Things" in this world. You truly are a gift! :) I can see your light!

    I think you are so cute! You have a very sweet voice and beautiful eyes and I learned about you in one of the same skill share classes I took. I just wanted to tell you what I saw in my mind's eye when you read your WONDERFUL poem about anxiety. "Serve and Protect" I think it would be a beautiful thing if you turned that into a children's book!! I can see the pictures in my head with maybe only a few changes to benefit the young children today who feel anxiety and pressure, probably from the world around them not just from their own lives. However, I think it would be a great children's book, just find an artist you like and envision it being real. I can tell you from my own experience with children it would be a blessing for them to read that with pictures. Its very good!!
