now again

now beginnings!

now that I am patched up,
something to say,
pleasant to go

you may see me standing
in the weak winter square
fluttering
like the fingers of the wind
in a cotton shirt

you say that I am pale
and small and tough
from growing
through a long ordeal

right you are!
I am beautiful
my backbone is
There



I wrote and published this last winter, but more people read my blog now, and I am proud enough of it to post it again.

you have good reason to be proud.

(the word verification for this was "harfi"...it is like a random cuss word. "Aw! Harfi!")
