Well I have a Xanga in which I post various musings and writings of mine, the_wandering_bard on xanga. Figures I might as well share my posts here as well. I have a shiney week all.

In my secret silence,
Finding soulful serenity,
Letting all lapses leave
My crashing conscience
So that sandy foundation
Find the solid stone's strength.

I rebuild from runic wreckage
Towers which reach to
Hosanna’s heavenly kingdom,
My mouth the herald,
My heart the keep,
My soul the stones themselves.

Ok so how odd is this for me, to post. I never post, it’s shocking. Well I have had an awesome day, and wrote a poem that I have now shared with you. I am doing very well, and have just had a great weekend. I am starting to see a lot of clarity in my life, and have found an amazing amount of guidance, support, and the ever-important self-confidence.

For those who don't know how I write though I share this with you. I suck at English. Folks, I'm in engineer. I can't spell, use a semi-colon properly, or know all the rules of a comma. My vocabulary is tiny, and I tend to make weird words, overneath, for example. Yet, when I take pen to paper to produce my prose, something takes a hold of me, and it get better with every verse. I don't make a lot of drafts and changes, just write, and there it is. It’s awesome and I love it, and hope I can keep fueling that fire that lets words fall from my fingers, to bring something to each of you.

(This post was spellchecked, any ideas for a poem title. Let me know.)
