A New Series to Celebrate National Poetry Month.
In honour of National Poetry Month (and a recently fractured collar bone) I’m practicing “less is more” this month. And nothing illustrates that more perfectly than poetry. Each week in April, Sound Insight will feature one of my poems along with a brief reflection inspired by the poem’s theme.
This week’s poem is Threshold.
We tend to think of thresholds as lines to cross, doorways to enter, or edges from which we leap. If we are held there longer than we want to be, we become impatient, agitated, or even despondent. We rarely consider the value in the threshold itself. This poem was written during one of those difficult threshold seasons, April 2020, our first COVID-19 lockdown.
