Dear, K
This is such a cleansing piece. The idea of casting out unnecessary, unwanted burden on the waves and in the wind is frankly relaxing and necessary to survive with sanity intact. The last stanza i a happy declaration of Independence.  Bravissima Goddess Titanium. ❣️❣️🌹

Thanks, GW! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. It's a lesson I have to learn over & over...

I can almost envision a monthly fertility ritual by a woman in an ancient civilization. Well done, BT.

You're pretty close...
I wrote this for the Aunt Flo Art comp. 😉
Thanks!

BIG THANKS!

Nice, I like it!

Thanks, and welcome to this place!

Acceptance is a beautiful thing, and necessary to a smooth cycle of events.
I really enjoyed this, BT.

Indeed it is. Thank you very much, A. 🙂

Totally agree with GW, a very cleansing peace. Ah, the ability to release those regrets and other things that put us in a bad place is an amazing skill. One that I still have a lot of work to do on. My OCD grabs something and beats me with it until I can't think straight. But I am inspired by this write! :)

I'm glad to have inspired you! I don't really possess this skill of letting go either. I'm still a work in progress.
Thanks for the love!

Dear K,

“ Gratefully letting go  
of burdens that are not hers to carry,  
shedding layers of responsibilities  
she was never meant to bear”
Every time I’m resolved to living by the afore quote they suck me right back in!
I thought this was a wonderful piece describing the letting go process. I don’t suppose you have any tricks up your sleeve to keeping it gone? Anyway, lovely poem. H🌷

Hmm, I dunno... I wonder if that trick comes with age? I haven't got there yet myself.
Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate your visits. ❤

Beautifully vulnerable and yet it has a graceful composure. Terrific emotional presence and feel of candor.

Thank you, Daniel. I appreciate your kind feedback!

this was a powerful write in all of its glory, i love the change in the lines and formatting it read to me like an abdominal cramp in the first stanza, then it started flowing as it got into the body of the poem when it speaks of letting go of every responsibility and difficulty that's faced in a sacred time of a woman's life,

it's wonderful seeing every inch of space being used like almost taking up the room for a moment and everyone must listen and well i've always felt that's a power in itself k  

thank you for sharing :)
