explore unknown worlds
stagnation of soul released
my mind is set free
reading – haiku
poetry
covered – haiku

rained on my parade
you held out an umbrella
covered me in love

Kindness reigns from high
May humans follow in suit
Spreading love to all
` wishing all a blessed Earth Day
jagged rocks

crawling over the jagged rocks of life past
they puncture my thickened skin
blood dribbles from my palms
releasing anguish deep inside
my knees bleed
sending despair from my body
blood pours out as the rocks cut deeper
disenfecting my soul
Calling authors who live with a chronic illness!
Photo by Mohammad Danish on Pexels.com
One of my 2020 goals for simplychornicallyill is to review 6 books from WordPress bloggers who live with a chronic illness (or three). Currently, I have two publications on my to-review list, but I am searching for three more books to read this year. My first review of 2020 was The Shadow Boxers by Kim Johnson & Karen Anderson and you can find my thoughts here.
So, if you are a chronically ill and have published a book, or know of a WP blogger who is chronically ill, please send them a link to this post. All I need is the title of your book and I will purchase it with my own funds, give you a review on this blog, and hopefully help bring more attention to your work.
Thank you in advance for the chance to assist another chronically ill author.
` wendi is author of 3 books and you can check them out here.
fear

fear
seeps into your mind like an early morning fog,
slowly expanding into all the open trenches
unfilled spaces
finding places in the mind you didn’t know existed
enlarging to leave no room for productive thoughts
protecting its position like a vicious dog guarding it’s home
settling in like the dust in the carpet
seemingly unnoticed and determined to anchor down for the long haul
I am ready to clean house
sweeping it out, not under the rug
searching for all the hiding places
wanting to turn this into a childhood game i no longer want to play
i will find you
searching, one-by-one, the hidden rooms of my mind,
evicting the fear and pain
refilling the room with light and love and hope
slamming the door shut with a vengence
securing the deadbolt and allowing the love to expand to fill each and every room.

WP Published Authors – my list
Photo by Engin Akyurt on Pexels.com
I have finally compiled the list of all the wonderful authors who left a comment on my post, pubished?!. I would like to thank everyone who listed their work, and if you would like to be included, please leave your information in the comment section below, thank you.
I would also like to encourage you to take a moment to check out the authors’ offerings below and show some love and encouragement to your fellow WP bloggers. Some of their books may be able to be checked out at a library if you cannot afford it, and many of the books can be read for free on Amazon through KindleUnlimited . I am NOT an Amazon affliate, so I am not benefiting from this suggestion, but you can sign up for a free 30-day trial and read all the books you would like and then make sure to cancel your membership before the 30 days.
So without further ado, here are the authors:

sounds of the season
Photo by Jake Colvin on Pexels.com
the rustling of leaves holding tightly to their branches
the crunching sounds of fallen leaves under your feet
the whirling of the leaves dancing in the wind
and geese honking their good-byes overhead
the lonely cry of an owl
the cool rains that fall down from heaven
the music of this magical season…………..
