My favorite line - "penning poetry." O.K., actually too hard to say which is favorite. I have to go back now and read yesterdays poem. Got to jump in shower - now I'm going to look forward to that being my first slice to read tonight!

I'm not very excited about the outcome, but I managed to get something down. I'm hoping tomorrow will be better. I guess we'll all wrestle together with the uncertainty. <br /><br />CathyCathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08233792477358685156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-47693279275185291312012-03-16T19:26:50.081-05:002012-03-16T19:26:50.081-05:00Such great stuff comes from you when you "jus...Such great stuff comes from you when you "just write."

You have such a way with words even if you don't have anything to say. It's a state of mind and you are your own biggest critic.
