Wild Woman, in her habitat
So much depends
on getting one's coat
(and one's attitude)
on right-side-up.
So much depends
on whether one's legs
hold one up
when you first stand up
in the morning.

on whether one's legs

So much depends
on one's ability to go on dreaming,
as the years roll by
and the dream stays
just one tantalizing titch
out of reach.

Must admit, your second stanza gave me, a chuckle or two, Sherry. Especially, given some of my meds can cause me, dizzy spells.
ReplyDeleteVery charming, Sherry--I am with you. k.
ReplyDeleteI think the last stanza is the one that really make the first two possible.. A wonderful write.

ReplyDeletehave a good weekend
much love...
Love this!
ReplyDeleteLoving that extra spacing at "titch," ma'am. Perfection. And I LOVE this photo, of my favorite Wild Woman.
ReplyDeleteI agree with de...whole heartedly and I also embrace the reminder to grasp one's dreams now...before it's too late. Well done!
ReplyDeleteOne leg in front of the other, Sherry!
ReplyDelete"one tantalizing titch" love that!
ReplyDeleteStill it's a titch still closer to being fulfilled.
ReplyDeleteGreat pic of you Dear One.
I LOVE this view of the wild woman. So in-depend-ent!!
ReplyDeleteLet us all be wild women. Even the men!! Power to the feminine!
ReplyDelete"just one tantalizing titch / out of reach."...sigh...
ReplyDeleteDreams wouldn't be dreams if they were easy to catch, yes?
ReplyDeleteI do sense you are moving closer....still a bit out of reach, but I think you can see the view in the distance!
ReplyDeleteKeep reaching and stand tall! Your dream is still there and you are getting closer! Hang in there~
ReplyDeleteLove this one and your photo!!
Keep dreaming. AND you have lived that dream - some never ever get to. I can tell you hold that time close in your heart - and I do hope you get there again someday. Love the photo!
ReplyDeleteOh those dreams just beyond our fingertips... I think I need to grow longer arms! We just need to take stock of just how many dreams we've lived.
ReplyDeleteI love how it starts with simple, every day things (reminding us what some people take for granted) and transition to a very big thing.
ReplyDeleteIt is always one step at a time even when we want to sprint. Love the basic, practical thoughts and then the dreaming.
ReplyDeleteLove the attitude and coat too! :)
ReplyDelete24 carat golden nuggets!!
ReplyDeleteHa. Love it!
ReplyDeleteLove, love. Always just a tetch out of reach.
