a random meeting
staring into the abyss of google plus
i see a spark, a glimmer, a ray of hope
a light shining from the inky darkness
drawing me onward, forward, closer
to what, i know not
is it a friend? a helping hand? a face?
there is but one way to figure this out
circle, add and befriend the new glimmer
talk and converse, sharing words aplenty
to the future we climb
a year went by…
Well, over a year went by since i last posted anything. a lot has happened since then. I moved off my parents’ porch and into my own trailer. still on their property, but at least we have our own spaces now. last summer we resealed and rebuilt my old 55 gallon tank and have some koi and shubunkin goldfish in it (the koi will go in the pond once it’s finished). as soon i was moved and had power, i got my 20 gallon extra tall and 26 gallon bowfront set up and there have been fish in them for a few days now. they’re all doing wonderfully and seem very happy. ^_^
I’m still with my boyfriend in New York. he’s very sweet and kind and tolerates my emotional outbursts quite well. ^_^ he has such a heart of gold, too. i think this might be about our one year anniversary, but we don’t have a day pinpointed where we were just friends one day and BF/GF the next.
despite there having been a lot that’s happened the past year, that’s about all i want to talk about right now. ^_^ i’ll have to write more later.

Edit – 5-1-2013 – a newer pic of the big tank. ^_^ blurry phone camera pic, but still pretty.
new poem today
forever longing and striving
i see hope at last
floundering in the world
there is a thin line
moving forward
slowly gaining dreams
realizing myself
and who i am
who i will be
at the end of the day
when the journey is complete
and life starts anew

I once had hope.
Thank You
i don’t expect anyone to read my blog or my poetry, but when someone comments on something, i’m so happy i can cry. thank you all that have. thank you. ^_^ you’re one of the little things that makes life worth living.

Living Anew
Falling upon the wings of angels
Fall Storm
Cold gray sky of clouds
Tender threads falling graceful
