“Falling freely like October from a tree”
That’s a line I used in one of my poems, and I still think it’s one of the best lines I’ve written. Truthfully, i’m not a big fan of writing poetry. But there’s something about symbolic writing that I enjoy. If it weren’t for this poetry class, I don’t think I would have explored that side of writing as much as I did. Funny how that works. Sometimes the things we’re reluctant to try end up surprising us. Who knows? Maybe I’m falling for poetry after all, like October falling from the trees.
