Another New Beginning

ANOTHER NEW BEGINNING is a collection of seventy free-association poems based on Renshi, a Japanese form of linked poetry. To link each thought, the final words of one poem are used to form the title of the next. Then a shift occurs to address another topic, idea, or event. While these poems do not strictly follow the rules of Renshi, they do contain its spirit. After 70 years on God's green earth, author Gail Baugniet learned to float on the trade winds, allowing happiness to seep into the many crevices of her life. Open to whatever comes each day, she now enjoys life to the fullest. Gail wrote these poems to share the pleasantness afforded to her in this life. Not all the poems are about happiness, but each was written from a place of joy and peace.
