In Pursuit of Poetry

March 22, 2020 - Susan Ksiezopolski - While We Wait

March 22
While You Wait by Susan Ksiezopoloski. This is one of many wonderful poems from her book Writing For Change: A Poetic Journey. I had the pleasure of meeting this poet at the Word On The Street Festival in Toronto last September. I also purchased two of her other books - The Writer's Workbook: Free The Writer Within Tap into the power of creativity & Fuel Your Creativity (written with Angela Chao - who I also met).

This poem reminds me to 'show up' and make my dreams happened one step at a time. Stop waiting... and take the leap of faith. What about you?
Enjoy!
