Commentary

One of my favorite poems ever was a short one titled “Blurt Out Love.” That’s exactly what I’ve done in tossing down this birthday poem. I’ve experienced losses and gains over the last year. Enhancing old friendships and developing new ones has been the best gain. I am learning to invite friends into my experience, as they invite me into theirs.
