Down the spiral

Working through the midnight dream,

we enter through the magic space

chasing elusive thoughts drifting by

and capturing the essence

of a different path to tread.

We walk into the other side of life

like carnival glass we shine in color,

merry-go-round world we glimpse ourselves

and learn as we hang on

just how to thrive once more.

Slipping into a new coat of words,

we allow the falling of thought to unfurl

and delight in spaces alive with beauty,

we stand deliberate in our new selves

awake, alive and so very aware.

Yesterday I finished writing my first novel. Chock full at 87,678 words, it is a labor of love and the culmination of a dream. On to the more technical aspects now, I’m embracing the new skills I’m learning and look forward to sharing the finished product come very early summer if all goes well. Thank you for your never ending patience while I’ve been in and out here at WordPress and I will keep you updated on the next aspects of this new journey I’m living out. Peace and blessings, K

  1. I thought I’d already commented on your achievement….
    But’s ok. Good things should be repeated.
    Congrats. Now take a break. Let the novel sit a few days.
    And the editing will sort itself out.

  2. Nope, but it flowed like water so must be something good there, more stories brewing but trying to stay focused on this till it’s done. Still a ways to go before hitting that publish button😱and thank you so much😊
