RE: Ode to my beloved Valencia. (Day 10.)
I love that you named your guitar Valencia. Funny I was just thinking of the city yesterday. I must be on your wavelength. Did I read that right? 7 marathons in 7 days. Wow. That is so impressive. But if is all the same, I'll take 90 poems in a 100 days. I once ran two half marathons in 6 months and my toe nail was purple for a year.
Valencia is the very cheap brand of guitar that my parents bought me, but I do use it as a name in it's own right.
Yes 7. It smashed me. My toes took a long time to recover, the rest of me didn't get over it. I lost most of my toe nails😖. I also took bigger shoes with me. By about day 4 or 5 I couldn't get my regular shoes on. Swollen from injury and fluid shift.
I can imagine.
It is strange when things feel unexplainably connected. I had the words Sea and tempest in my head, I thought it was because I had been talking Shakespeare, maybe it was. I was also watching the local Australian news in which our immigration minister was seceding in perpetuating his image as an unsavoury individual. I wrote my first poem about the mans conduct actually.
Any way as the words repeated in my head I clicked on @blessedben's poem. It contained the words and directly related to the theme of my first poem. Weird. I also found a lovely talented young poet. _The steemit poetry challenge has an air of synergy and synchronicity about it.
