The Aerial Tree

I'm coming back from a workshop based on the chapter The Aerial Tree from Air and Dreams by Gaston Bachelard.

Together, we explored this image of the aerial tree through reveries of the nest and the act of leaning against a tree.

We also wrote poems and guided meditations for those who come on Fridays to Cherish from 1 to 1:30 PM for a revitalizing break in their busy day.

After a poetry workshop, I always feel so full of optimism and joy—humbled, too. Connecting with others on a poetic level is a privilege I never take for granted.

Thank you to everyone who was here tonight, both newcomers and regulars. Connecting with you was the highlight of my day—even on an already lovely day.

Picture is of a nest we found last spring in our garden!
