Another meeting of my writers' group this afternoon. Something I look forward to with both arms outstretched.
Thanks for a lovely lunch, thanks for the wisdom of craft, thanks for the example set, thanks for every laugh.

Delighting in Our Tribe
Delighting in our tribe
We draw our strength from words
A kinship undescribed
Laughter peals, we imbibe
Conversations spun, heard
Delighting in our tribe
Affection slung with jibes
Guffaws at the absurd
A kinship undescribed
Rx so sweet prescribed
Embrace our inner nerd
Delighting in our tribe
Inhale creative vibe
Our dreams, here undeterred
A kinship undescribed
No one to circumscribe
Our muses stroked, chauffeured
Delighting in our tribe
A kinship undescribed
