Recently, I’ve been attempting to be more creative. Whatever that means. During my time at CCBC, I’ve made it a point to take at least one art class every semester, unfortunately, I was unable to do so this time. Which means that my semester so far has been filled with neurons, action potentials, and bones. So I decided that I would try something I’ve never done before – poetry!
Now if you know me, you might be shaking your head and laughing knowing that this idea will last for about a week before I move on to my next project and you’re probably right.
But…here is my very first attempt at a little poem using the letters of the upcoming season as a kind of inspiration and starting point
At the start of every season
Untimely feelings come upon
To all who dread silently
Understand that a new season
Means brighter futures
Not closing doors.
This idea came from feeling a little sad that the last day of summer has just passed, so I am instead going to change my outlook and think of it as the first day of fall. The firsts of anything always bring new opportunities, and new ideas – a fresh start.
See you next week.
Ps. Try writing a poem (you might like it).
I love your positive outlook!
Thank you Ms. Lesley. I’m trying to get better at looking for a silver lining in everything.
