    <description>Welcome to The Poet Delayed Podcast! This podcast is a space for real, honest, and meaningful conversation. I explore poetry, literature, healing, relationships, and the deep importance of connection—not just with others, but also with ourselves. While we talk about the beauty and significance of relationships, we also dive into the vital act of staying true to who we are. It’s easy to lose ourselves in the world and in the connections we cherish, but this space is a reminder that being in relationship with others should never mean abandoning ourselves. Whether I’m sharing my own journey or talking with guests, my goal is to create a space where stories and experiences bring us closer together. I believe that through sharing, we find understanding, and through connection, we find a sense of belonging. "May I be I is the only prayer - not may I be great or good or beautiful or wise or strong." - E.E. Cummings</description>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;SHARING MY SKY&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you ever have some time&lt;br&gt;
Stop by for a bit.&lt;br&gt;
I've got a beautiful sky&lt;br&gt;
And no one to share it with.&lt;br&gt;
It's really nothing much,&lt;br&gt;
Just a moon and some friendly stars, &lt;br&gt;
But what is mine,&lt;br&gt;
I'll make ours.&lt;br&gt;
So, if you've got some time, &lt;br&gt;
Just stop by&lt;br&gt;
The gate is always open &lt;br&gt;
And I've saved you a spot&lt;br&gt;
Right next to me&lt;br&gt;
On the soft and welcoming grass.&lt;br&gt;
We'll have a breath of cool fresh air &lt;br&gt;
And sit and share&lt;br&gt;
My sky together.&lt;/p&gt;
