Poem every day

Posted on March 25, 2015 by Mel Baggs under poetry, tanka

I promised myself
to write poems every day
springtime in my heart

     flowers blossom inside me
     I plant poems by the road

Mel Baggs

Hufflepuff. Came from the redwoods, which tell me who I am and where I belong in the world. I relate to objects as if they are alive, but as things with identities and properties all of their own, not as something human-like. Culturally I'm from a California Okie background. Crochet or otherwise create constantly, write poetry and paint when I can. Proud member of the developmental disability self-advocacy movement. I care a lot more about being a human being than I care about what categories I fit into.
