a dreamcatcher
tucked inside this drawer
for years
all those nightmares
I could have released

I need to find a place for it—that and many other items we still haven't hung up since relocating here.
Love this, so much meaning.
ReplyDeleteFind a place to hang it up--think of all the inspiring magical mystical mysterious dreams you might be missing! Love the poem.
ReplyDeleteHang the dream catcher, forget the rest. After awhile, you don't miss them.

thanks for the comments, lisa, jenny, adelaide.
ReplyDeleteI remember this one, Janet. Very nice. I also have a dreamcatcher tanka (but it hasn't found a home yet); perhaps it will have to remain inside my (virtual) drawer.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Maggie.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see your tanka. May it find the just-right home.
