Wild Woman Is Coming With a Message



Wild Woman is coming this April
with a message:
"Use your time well," she says,
"for it is fleeting."

Under the earth, a space is growing,
a soft bed for an old woman
who is slowly hobbling towards it.

Meanwhile, it is April.
There are poems to write
and books to create.

I am listening for all the messages
Wild Woman will bring.
I am listening well.

  4. I sometimes feel like I'm not doing the best with my time. Your poem helps me reflect on how to infuse my days with quality.
