Created with fd's Flickr Toys.
I've been gone longer than I expected...might take me some time to
catch up with you all! Meantime, here are my belated best wishes to
two very special Flickr ladies:
Judy and Ellen. I hope your day and your year will be your best ever!!
Excerpts from the inspiration poem:
"i am running into a new year"
~ by Lucille Clifton ~ "Good Woman: Poems and a Memoir"
"i am running into a new year
and the old years blow back
like a wind
that i catch in my hair..."
"...like
all my old promises and
it will be hard to let go
of what i said to myself
about myself
when i was sixteen and..."
"...even thirtysix but
i am running into a new year
and i beg what i love and
i leave to forgive me"
