Mikaela Castledine #366 The End

I have never subscribed

to the knowing of endings

don't read the last page first

or crane around the corners

or consult clairvoyants

to look ahead

just walk steady

watch where you place your feet

the end will get here soon enough

and you’ll lift your face to it

and smile

and thank it politely for coming

Thanks to everyone for this year of living poetically. It has been wonderful to have shared this time with such an amazing group of writers and I hope to be able to keep in touch with as many of you as possible. I wish you a fulfilling and creative year ahead. All the best, Mikaela xx
