I AM – A Poem
By
Donna Henes
I am the creative fire that connects all humanity to the source of life. I reside gently and timidly in receptacles of unborn potential and I wait patiently to be heard, seen, expressed and shared. I don’t know when my journey towards the light of form, shape, word and movement began. It seems that I…

Letting Go of All that Does Not Serve

On my birthday this year, a friend presented me with a gorgeous amber necklace that she had gotten in Russia twenty years ago before she immigrated to the United States. Though she felt that it did not suit her, she held onto it for two decades for sentimental reasons. When she gave it to me,…
I Want to Be a Crone — Someday
By
Donna Henes
My maternal Grandmother died at 80. This was pretty old in her day. My mother died just short of her 80th birthday, which pains me still. She was not old. She did not look or act old. But she felt old. She lost interest in what had always pleased and sustained her, and thought that…
