On the path to "Nowhere"
The Saturday Spark
Tell us: Have you ever found “Somewhere” on the ”path to Nowhere”?
Reminder: Starting this month . . .
I’ll publish this newsletter (Events & News) every other Saturday instead of weekly.
The remodeling of The Raft continues during this major time of transition in my life and work. I hope you’ll like the changes. Stay tuned.
In case you missed it . . .
Here’s the welcome gift you should have received when hopping aboard The Raft, just in case you missed it.
Here you go— poem of mine entitled “Random Notes from a River Raft,” formatted as a poster.
Catch up! (event replays)
Next week on The Raft . . .
Poetry Pick-Me-Up (Zoom, Thursday, 12-1PM Central). A casual weekly gathering for poetry-sharing, celebration, and discussion. Hop on the Zoom at this link. Bring a poem you like to read to the group. Or, just come to listen to poems offered by other Rafters and to participate as you’re comfortable in our informal but wholehearted conversation. Can’t make it? Watch for the video replay in this newsletter!
Grateful, grateful!

Reminds me of the lyrics of Enya's song, Pilgrim: In your heart you wonder/Which of these is true/The road that leads to nowhere/The road that leads to you.
I have been "unknowingly" lost and discovered "somewheres" I never imagined. Oh the irony in Joy and Pain; Nowhere and Somewhere!
