[stylist] April and a Poem Submission

[PAUL BAVER]

I really understand, I was shot in the face at the age of fifteen, which 
took me from perfect (20-20) vision, to totally blind, it only took me forty 
years to get over myself, and loss of my vision. Time does heal. Paul E 
Baver

>>> 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.
