It Just Takes A Minute

by Joan

For nearly two years now, I’ve been

writing minutes

almost daily,

reflecting on

the ordinary happenings

of my life. This

unaccustomed

discipline brings

measure to my meditation,

meter to my

poetry, and

metta to life.

    Joan, just yesterday I taught my creative writing students the “formula” for minute-poetry. They tried it once the “hard” way, and another with just the number of 60 syllables. They really enjoyed it! Thanks for inspiring me as you always do. I wrote about the discipline recently, and also about the seduction of aspects of blogging. I’m so glad you pave the way! Em
