Loving Sideways Defined

It seems that writing prose has follows my poetic lead. I’m sure I can’t be without my poetry, as I want to tell integrate stories. I have this springboard, where a voice of editorial comments is deeply ingrained. When asked what is the meaning of “Loving Sideways"? The answer was searched and found in a discussion with my son.

I have had the privilege of being married for 42 years. This stability fostered my expression; as I came to search my understanding of who I am, coming forward with my title. I viewed my many in directions. Not really upside down, merely adventurous and looking into my world of possibilities. Education and loving the amazing part of my life force has me still searching in many directions. Sometimes I am surprised at life’s offering me new thoughts of love from the sidebars of my life.

When times of my life becomes weary with excessive extroversion, I come back to the strait lines, helped me build my life while still loving the world of variety and many wonders. Still here to learning and “Loving Sideways”

The world of opposites came to visit me!

Memories of those I sought to impress

They all slipped away and I am free

Free to walk away in fettered garments

Diamonds hidden in drawers

I found my center?

Looking forward as I remember

I don’t have to look back

While confusion can rest on the sofa.

We have forgotten who we were

 Slipping away and retreating

A hidden voice tells me I can.

Longing to forget where I came from

Finding a center forecasted in a sideways flow

I know my envelope is full

Still more letters need to be:

Written and slipped inside my book.
