OLD WORDS FOR A NEW YEAR

 

About 20 years ago I sat beneath this tree

 

at a

 

Women in the Woods Workshop

 

held by Tina Stromstead, Meg Wilbur and Virginia Holmquist.

 

Inspired by the tree's age and courage - I drew it -

 

and wrote the lines, below.

 

They still mean a lot to me, now, at 84.

 

 I REALLY 'GET IT'

 

ALTHOUGH MY TIME IS SHORT

 

I don't have to rush and push

 

I can cherish the moments

 

 

To remind myself

 

I washed a page with walnut ink -

 

copied the following words

 

in amateurish calligraphy

 

and hung it where I can see it every day!
