You never know when you begin
where your pen will take you.
It's like stepping into a boat
and setting sail across a lake
hoping for the wind to point you
in the right direction.
Or like diving into a pool
hoping you can float.
It's always a mystery how one word
leads to another, how you can create
a trail of words and a path appears
that didn't exist before you began.
It's always a surprise what you find
along the way, something unexpected,
something you've never seen before,
something you're able to see in a new light,
from a new perspective.
You never know what you'll find
each time you begin. It's like going
on a treasure hunt, like being pulled
by a magnet you can't see, can only feel
tugging at your heart.
