Jan. 30 - Write About A Forbidden Activity

Jan. 29 - The End of the Day

In the morning
the demands of the day
pull and stretch
the threads that hold
our family together.

We go our separate ways
dispersing to the east,
the west, and south,  to
our prospective duties
as citizens of this world.

But when the day
is content we've met
our obligations to it,
those threads pull us
back to safety.

For these aren't threads
that imprison us,
but a bond of the heart,
a cozy blanket to wrap
ourselves in at the end of the day.

A Note About the Blank Posts :)

Due to illness, mine own and my little one's, working, job hunting, and just life in general I have fallen behind on the blog. However, I want the posts to show up in chronological order according to the book, so please be patient with the blank posts. I intend to go back and fill them in!
