The Sound of Ink

“You've got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down.”  ― Annie Dillard   On this mountain where nothing grows but stones I must seed the wind with wings, and learn to fly when I leap into the unknown. ©Susie Clevenger 2020 #napowritmo2020 Day 22 Inspired by: #skyloverwordlist Real Toads Poets of April Real Toads - April 2020 - Day 22

These are days that require I swim, to breathe under water, to float tears I can’t shed, and be strong enough to reach an unknown shore. I struggle in the power of the current, fear the length of the storm. In my weakest hour I rally memories of what I’ve overcome. Peace waits in the raging with open arms. ©Susie Clevenger 2020 Artistic Interpretations #2 ~ Pond Lillies
