Unbroken Spring

#SOL21 by Amy EllermanMarch 27, 2021

I sever the line,
buoyed, 
feeling 
the anchor of this year
disappear 
into the depths 
below. 

Lighter already! 

Riding a current
of my own making,
I fill my sails
with the nourishing wind
of books,
sleep,
and sunshine. 

I breathe. 
I write. 
I heal. 

The horizon beckons.

Every day in the month of March, I am blogging with the team at Two Writing Teachers Blog as part of the Slice of Life Story Challenge. Join us!

This picture is breathtaking, as are your words. I love the setting sail analogy and the “nourishing wind of books, sleep, and sunshine”. This line resonates 100% with me. Thank you for putting into words how I felt today. Happy break to you.
