Yesterday, WordPress showed me a post I’d made on November 5th 2018. I was in was in a writing class called Royal Writers (we met at Theatre Royal Nottingham) and the prompt we were given was Things I Have Left Behind.

Re-reading it, I’m quite pleased with what I wrote so, today, I’ll post it again for Flaunt it Friday. It’s good looking back at pieces we’ve written before. Do you have any you’re pleased with?

Things I Have Left Behind

I have left behind the

spring in my step

clambering over rocks

the triumph of hilltops

I have left behind questions

not worth an answer

niggles and annoyances

and petty people

I have left behind memories

that don’t belong in today

and clutter my brain

like too many papers

I have left behind vanity

that made me mind

what people thought

become more me
