Welcome to Four Lines! I have a goal I would like to write at least four lines of poetry or a haiku every day for the rest of my life. I'm excited about this challenge! Also, along with my daily poem, I will be reading at least four lines of another author's poetry. I'll try to include that here also. So I'm thinking - how difficult can it be to read and then write one poem a day? We will see! - Claudia

I met another Claudia
today - my one-time
Work Force Center
counselor, who couldn't
help me, same name
notwithstanding.
I'm not the government
program's right size -

being curved, not cornered,
holistic, not atomistic,
brown rice, not white,
spiritual, not religious,
all over the unemployment
pyramid. Health coaching?
- too colorful, too green,
in and out of defined,

current boarders,
without guarantees,
kind of like... poetry!
I did appreciate her advice,
and sentiment - "You're on
a good path, I know."  Outside
her government job, Claudia
is a Qigong teacher.
