"A poem begins with a lump in the throat."
-Robert Frost
The day has dawned. I have a blog...and a huge lump in my throat.
I was born into a very talented group of writers. I've since spent my life reading, writing, acting and collaborating with more incredibly talented writers, directors, and orators. This decision was inevitable and long overdue. I have some very important literary Joneses to keep up with ;-)
The Jones numero uno in this scenario is my mom. My blog's name comes from a poem my mom wrote about me when I was a toddler. Her writing reflected the love and understanding that only a mother can have for her child. I aspire to reach that level of consciousness in my life and my musings. So this is for her--an ongoing way to keep up with my journey.
For an Eternity
Though distance may separate us,
Though time may not slow for us,
Our bond is everlasting.
From this life into the next,
You are my hero; I, your art.
I live to make you proud.

ReplyDeleteWelcome to the blogosphere, the youngest of the oldest! I am looking forward to your tales and the glimpse into your life I know this will bring.
ReplyDeleteI would suggest a tiny change in your profile, though...your readers aren't wasting their time, they are "spending" their time with you!
