If I Had to Say - a link to my own poem

[kellyrfineman]

This week, I was lucky to have my poem, "If I Had to Say", posted by Silver Birch Press on their website. It's a poem I wrote several years ago, while in the midst of a divorce.

Here is the link!

Thanks for sharing your poem -- so often we can't see unless looking back. And writing poems helps us to discover things, doesn't it? Congratulations on the publication of this one, which I am certain many can relate to.

I really liked your poem - the conclusion was magical. And I loved this bit:
I’d speak Spanish,
know the names of
all the stars,
and birds would take
seeds right from my hands.
