One of my biggest joys is writing and then putting that writing out into the world and I’m so excited about this project.
Today I thought I’d share a little Fred Voss with you. In ‘Poetry Jackpot’, he writes about his fellow workers on a factory shop floor;
‘I wish the machinists around me in this shop could feel the joy I feel each morning as I wait for the poems to come to me … I cannot wait to open my toolbox each morning and look for poems… while these machinists around me drag their feet like they are dead because they dream of winning the California State Lottery Jackpot and escaping. Who said there was no magic elixir of life?… each turning of a wheel magic, each minute a gift.’
And this is it isn’t it, even in the everyday we can look for miracles, and as he says; ‘each minute a gift’ ⭐️ 💫 🌟
