Bold Thoughts Poem by Dorothy Pugin
Bold Thoughts
Today I am bold
I could do anything
I could
stand on the tips of my toes
reach into the sky
and dress myself with night diamonds
I could
scoop up the morning birds
and wear them
singing in my hair
Today I have been bold
I have done something
I have
whispered your name
into that space which is fear
and excitement
I have
let myself
think about you

This is a re-sounding poem! Very bold like its title. I wish you could polish it again and again (with time that is) until it achieves it's final version - one suggestion - it appears to me that the poem could do without the fourth stanza - the others seem to parallel one another except for this one. Overall, I'm very impressed with the tone and structure of the poem.
Wonderful imagery - simply stated. The sense of daring resounds - 'I have whispered your name into that space which is fear and excitement' Great poem Dorothy, Kind regards, Justine
