I am just now (within the last two years) dipping my toes into the world of poetry! I typically reach for literary fiction, memoir, or nonfiction. Poetry can be a challenge for me, but so far I've been enjoying expanding my horizons!

I'm not a big poetry person, but I am moved by your reflection! There certainly have been lines that have captured my heart and mind at times. I was so surprised when on my sabbatical, my writing practice emerged as poetry. It felt like a gift, and perhaps poetry always is!
