Creation
builds during
busy-ness
Behind the dam
it waits,
impatiently
Waiting
for a crack in
time
Waiting
for the Dutch boy
to slip
Unleashing
the torrent,
the flood
Bringing
the nourishing
sediment
The fertilizer
for my
Soul

I’ve been uber busy since I started my new job, which has left me little time to create. It seems creativity was sitting and waiting for me, because now that I’m off for Spring Break I’ve been writing all week (other poems here and here, and also dissertation writing!). I’m even prepping a canvas for a new painting!
I know the importance of taking care of my self in my day-to-day living, and I have been taking care of myself. But there are only so many hours in the day. With that, it’s good to know that my creativity waits for me to catch up.
