[stylist] April and a Poem Submission

[Lynda Lambert]

Hi Paul, thanks.
I am just beginning to be able to write again after a long absence. My 
sudden sight loss put everything upside down and I am still learning how to 
do things I once did without hesitation. One baby step at a time.

>> Ah, here it comes!
>> It's just around the corner.
>>
>> It is nearly April.
>>
>> I have attached  a poem I wrote in 2001 - "In the Storms of April - 
>> Plunge"
>> (An excerpt from my book _ Concerti:  Psalms for the Pilgrimage_
>> I wrote it in response to a friend who had sent me a poem he wrote.)
>>
>>
>> April is  National Poetry Month!
>> April brings fresh new  experiences and inspirations for our writing.
>>
>> Poetry is in the spring sunshine and cast shadows of my Zen Meditation 
>> Garden this morning.
>>
>> My white cat, Angel, is curled up in a little bed of green leaves, He 
>> sleeps there  among the thick Periwinkle vines like a bright furry bird 
>> in his expansive nest.
>>
>> I thought I heard Poetry  in the woods, quietly moving about behind the 
>> delicate green buds of the thickets today. I walked my eager and hungry 
>> dogs early this morning. I paused at the top of the cliff and let the 
>> dogs sniff it out. They were at full alert. They barked and growled. 
>> Scratched the rich black earth beneath the limp leaves, the debris of 
>> winter that lines the floor of the woods. It  had vanished.
>>
>> April is National Poetry Month.
>>
>> Is there anything you will be doing to celebrate this month?
>>
>> For Poetry Month I pledge to spend my early morning hours here in my 
>> office.  I'll enjoy my  cup of Puerto Rican coffee, as I work to capture 
>> some of the images from my daily life through poetry.  There will be 
>> nothing here but the sounds and smells of the early morning hours wafting 
>> in through the open window.  I'll try to capture the flight of fancy that 
>> fills my fingertips as I type.
