Hello dear wide WordPress World!
My name is Annie. And this blog is titled “Fertile Ground”.
I created this blog because I realized I needed an outlet for my writing. I have a site where I only post poetry…but not a site where I can just post my raw and sometimes untamed thoughts. I haven’t had a blog in years and decided that it was time for me to have one again.
I think that blogs are a lot of fun. I love connecting with random souls all over the planet and having my words, thoughts and experiences validated by others…and being able to give the same gift back.
The title of this blog is “Fertile Ground”. It orginally was titled “iterluxperpetua” which is latin for “journey of perpetual light”. I feel that both titles give insight into who I am…but I think “Fertile Ground” is what I am wanting to cultivate here.
And in honor of this title, here is a poem I wrote to introduce myself and to explain what “fertile ground” means to me…
Wholeness…
I am woman.
I am not a frail flower
That bends and breaks with the wind.
I am a reslilient sturdy tree
With deep roots and long limbs
That will stand strong
And endure any storm.
I am woman.
My life is fertile ground.
And I will nurture the seeds of my ambition
And let them bloom into fruition.
I am woman.
Mothering myself into round fullness
Creating and recreating
With the cycles of the emanate moon.
I am fertile and feminine.
My own hero and archetype.
Maiden, Mother and Crone.
I am woman.
I am whole…
Blessings! And thank you for reading. 🙂
~Annie
