Welcome

Hi! I'm Missy Wilreker, and welcome to this new place for me to write and express. Thank you so much for reading and for your interest in what I write. This is a new endeavor for me, so let's see how it goes!

I was at Women Drummer's International - Born To Drum Camp 2011 and wandered into the "Writing as Ritual" class led by Odilia in the Spirit Lodge. Little did I know that the quick poems I wrote that afternoon, I would end up reading on stage at the open mic to such an ENTHUSIASTIC reception!

So many people encouraged me to continue writing and it FELT SO DARNED GOOD I am inspired to continue this adventure.

Feel free to comment on the poems, or give "prompt" suggestions to write upon as I am always awake and listening for what might inspire a flow of words and feelings.

Seeing You

I see you.
All the parts.
Even the ones you
don't think you show.
I feel
I hear
your soul
talking to me
revealing
the essence of
who you are.

Too Much Enough

He says, on the buffet line,
especially those really big
ones, like in
Las Vegas,
"My eyes are bigger than
my stomach!"
as he carries
a plate piled
high with food.
