'Where choice of past is wisdom gained' Are you saying that we should be select in the choice me make as regards the chunks of past we would wish to dwell on? 'The joy of pain becomes refining' Well, dear Visionary, I'm afraid you can count me out here! In a hurry, oozer

The sunset reflection on the water looks like a floating pen. Interesting.

They are two of the luckiest people I know to have you going to bat for them. They must be very special girl. I love your write, especially this:

Sometimes it draws from deeper wells
A pool of liquid languid pain
A blending of all sorrows cast
Where choice of past is wisdom gained

Hello, VisionaryPoet.
Thispoem is definitely deep, and there is much to be found here depending on how it is read. Primarily, as I find it, it is an introspective view of the mystical aspects of writing. The picture is lovely. How fortunate to be multi talented like that!
Thanks for this post.
Warmly, Rebecca
