Starting Over was the theme of this year’s Friends of the West Roxbury Library Poetry Contest. Here’s my contribution that won honorable mention for the second year in a row!!!
Starting Over
Starting over
whether
I like it
or not
but at least
not at
the beginning
back now
to the new-familiar
to give another go
but friends are missing
I begin again
after an amnesiac year
not sure just when
is when
or even
now
