My Lenten discipline this year was to try to write a poem every day. I wrote 47 of them between Ash Wednesday and Easter. Though I don’t often share my poems with others, this has been a really cool experience of developing attentiveness and integrating writing into my daily life. Hoping to self-publish a book with these and a few other poems in the coming months.
