I find poetry that connects with me deeply, seems like it was written for me. And this one speaks to one of my favourite memes this summer … truth. When I was younger, I thought I knew what my personal truth was, what I wanted, how I was going to get there. But as a grew older, I realized I didn’t know anymore … and fortunately my wisdom also grew to the point where I no longer needed a personal ‘truth’. i am quite happy to not know, to not feel the need to find it … it will present itself when the time comes.

oh please don’t stop commenting, gerry, you are one of the few who does. though it was nice to see i leave you speechless (in a good way) and thank you for that. i agree, i have the same thing with writing that i connect with as well - it does feel as though it was written for me. as to personal truths, yes, looking for them never seems to result in the actual finding of them - just letting it be and come to you seems to work best.

as always, thanks for your readership and your nice comments, they do brighten my day.
