Return to Light
Gordan Struić
The longest night exhales,
and somewhere beneath the frost
a seed remembers warmth.
I walk through fields
where shadows thin like old thoughts,
each breath a small sunrise.
Inside me,
the dark softens —
becomes room for light again.

Mentioned in this episode:
Write After with One Poem Only
Write After is a way to encourage poets to listen and write, and use National Poetry Month to highlight how listening to poetry makes us better poets. I know I write the best when I’m surrounded by beautiful poetry–it’s part of the reason I created this podcast, and I want to encourage others to share this practice.
If you want to join:
Listen to a poem from the month of April on One Poem Only, then write your own in response.
I will pick one for each day to read in June for a special series: One Poem After 🍎🍏
Submissions close May 15.
