This Month’s Exclusive Poem for Patrons: Turning Point

This post is about September's exclusive Patreon poem for patrons: Turning Point.

It is another adaptation of an ancient Irish blessing poem.

I'm creating a series of these blessing poems, that I'll collect into a book soon.

This poem is dedicated to my dear friend Kathy, also one of my patrons, who has so gracefully allowed her tough times to lead her home.

If you would like to read the poem, it becomes available exclusively to my patrons today, for the next three months.

Here's how it begins:
TURNING POINT
For Kathy
 
May you know many a moment when 
the wind facing strongly into you 
turns 
to brace your back and lift your legs, 
now bearing you along.
 
May you know many a moment when 
the sun hiding behind hill and cloud 
breaks 
to let its rays….

If you'd like to read more, you'll need to become a Patron!

If you already do support, then a deep bow. Thank you. Sonas mór leat. Namaste.
