Overcast

 Deborah Glessner Art
Deborah Glessner 'Landscape Orb'

Motion sickness….
Why do I need
to spin?
I felt so cozy
in the cocoon
of soft/swell/spell,
but
essential overcast
has shielded
the glorious song,
the vortex
sucked
into strange
territory.
Hard lesson
to learn –
how to stop…

  3. Sometimes, even when we are nice and cozy, there's that nagging voice telling us to get up and do more! If only we could learn to stop.

  9. I have only had motion sickness (in the form of seasickness) a few time. Really not fun! Following your blog now.
