"Storm"

Storm

 

Crack of
lightning splits the
night sky, darkness re-seams,
folds back together with stars as
buttons.

New Year's Resolution Achieved - 100 Poems Accepted for Publication in 2014

On Wednesday, January 1, 2014, at 8:23am, I made two New Year's Resolutions:

I resolved that I would write every day.

Additionally, I resolved that I would have 100 poems accepted for publication during this calendar year.

As of Thursday, October 30, 2014 at 1:15am (Email Time), I achieved my second resolution. And two months ahead of schedule, no less.

"Storm" is officially my 100th poem accepted this year. It's a cinquain, but it counts.  

Needless to say, I am very happy. I do believe this is the first time I have ever been so successful with a New Year's Resolution.
