25 Things About Me - A Meme
Some things you likely already know
such as that I am compelled to make lists
and messes,
married my soul mate
and am a dyed in the wool optimist.
What else? I believe art improves
the quality of life,
that procrastination and self righteousness
are my two worst qualities,
and that I’m a bad swimmer, but it doesn’t matter.
What matters: New York City is beautiful ,
eating sushi feels good,
the best things are poetry.
At heart, I’m a detective
wanting to know how this can be,
searching redemption tales
for questions,
believing the writings of soldiers and survivors
shine a light on god.
In the mornings I like to wake early
be busy for a few hours
then back to sleep.
I recharge my batteries and
recycle my light bulbs.
Each season is perfect
but sometimes I’m not ready
when it arrives
or leaves.
Come back, Fall!
The ocean overwhelms me
I can’t bear to look at it
except through camera lens.
I have five “favorite” colors
and am a lousy director.
Trying to like other ice creams
more than vanilla, but
it’s hard.
Like to read out loud
in public,
never know what to do with my hair
and it shows.
Getting braces was one of my best decisions,
after having my daughter.
Will teach her what I believe,
“Beloved, gaze in thine own heart,
the holy tree is growing there,”
and that from our lives
we make meaning.
