Michele,

I've been thinking for awhile about what you've said here, and realized it's been years since I wrote poems during the night at coffeeshops with friends. That was all just too much fun..gotta start doing it again!

But who with? Most of the people in my age group don't go to cafes at night to write poems. Or anytime for that matter.

So the other night I just couldn't get to sleep so I went to the IHOP at 3 in the morning. I brought in a pen and notebook with me, with the intention of writing poetry. I brought in some other papers that I needed to study...Reiki I and II materials, and got very involved reading about the life of Dr. Usui. Also there were so many sociable loud (drunk?) people there, it was quite distracting.

The upshot of this all is that I did not write any poetry. But it had been years since I went out late in the night to a coffeeshop, so maybe that's just the *baby step* that I needed to take in moving towards doing something again that was so much fun all those years ago!

We can recapture the fun of the past, I just know it! :)
