A series of poems, written for and inspired by
http://de-renaissance-en-nu.org and the events that are occurring around the time of this Ex the 4th July through to the 5th of August.
Events so far include a taxi journey (hence, wayside), the first day when I commented on other people's work (The Game, Temptress, Heart's Fire, Eye to Eye, Last Dance, My View) and when I was invited to supper (Pattern Bunion).
Then there is the beautiful angel I met, who has inspired me so much and challenged me and given me so much. automatically and without thinking, she says the right thing that I need to hear. She absolutely loves me, and she is so courageous. I have such respect, love and admiration for her that I can quite easily say, even after knowing her for only three weeks, that I can trust her with my life.
