Hope.

“My life laid before me… my treasons my troth
Wrapped with transcendence in fine sacred cloth
My breath must surrender to cold mortal brew
As wildflowers bend neath pure morning dew.

And then there were angels
Filling the sky
Lifting me upward…

And then I could fly.“

These are the words of a fellow blogger and poet.
Words that affect me more than one can know.
So I would like to use this post to thank him today
for being a glimmer in the night…and an inspirer of hope.

Because in our own way, we are all physicians.

He is Steven Michael Sanders,
‘Michael33’
I am asking you to visit him, 
because his poetry will enliven you,
and his story will inspire you.

Tidbits about William Carlos Williams (1883-1963):

♦ A renowned writer, he was said to be a “doctor by day, poet by night.”

♦ He attended medical school at the University of Pennsylvania, was trained in family medicine and pediatrics, and served as the chief of pediatrics for 40 years at what is now St. Mary’s General Hospital in New Jersey.

♦ He painted during his early years, similar to his mother, who was a Paris-trained artist.

♦ As one closely associated with modernest poetry and imagism, he also had marked influence on the American literary movements of the 1950’s including the San Francisco Renaissance, the Beat movement, and the New York School. 

♦ He is an inspiration to PuppyDoc.
