Every year I pick a word to focus on for that year. This year that word was JOY and oh my, what a challenge! Will write more on that tomorrow.

Today I picked the word for next year!

My word for 2015 is

Breathe

Breath of air, effortlessly
Unhindered by asthma

Breath, ragged, as art flows
Onto the paper under my pen

Breathlessly shaping words
Stories of wonder, poems of joy

Breath held as I experience
Earth’s magnificent beauty

The joyous breath of dancing to music
Played live on stage by artists I love

The one breath movement
Of a push of the shutter button

Breathless anticipation of
A new day of play ahead of me
