A Suitcase of Troubles
… full of heavy-weighted remnants.
She left behind a suitcase of troubles,
full of heavy-weighted remnants
from a deep trove of past mistakes.
.
So began a journey of brand new travels
leading somewhere else. A rare chance
to navigate uncharted waters; lochs and lakes.
.
A rare chance to think the unthinkable,
sink the unsinkable, to dance a dance
that casts aside what time forsakes.

A first impression has a lasting effect - it makes a notable difference. In a subtle way that’s who I am as a poet. A ‘first impression’ looking for the gentle ‘twist’ that draws attention to a novel observation.
