Sit With This

Book of Poetry
by Jill Rothman
 
We are given moments and mountains to sit with. My deepest desire, as you read my words, is that I will be seen, that you will feel seen, and that we will sit together.

Place After Any Poem of Mine

Erase my last poem.
It’s true,
but what I really came to do
is clear.
With all the lemonade I made,
and some heat,
the secret message
has appeared.
I came to learn to say,
“I Love You”
to MySelf.
So erase my last poem.
It’s true,
but this one
is the one
I came to write.
