TRESPASSING FEAR

Trespassing Boundaries and Fear

Trespassing Boundaries and Fear

 - Joy Krauthammer

Afraid of the water, 
I couldn't cross over Sedona's icy Oak Creek
to get to the other side.

Trespassing my own boundaries and fear
With encouragement from a friend 
Over the long narrow log I walked 
as if a trapeze wire.
I did it.

 On the other side, 
Joy is revealed.

Twenty years later,
finally I published the photo beyond fear,
and added a few words.
Enjoy
BlesSing,
Joy

Joy--You
Keep giving me occasions
to be proud of you.
Look how you, smiling like a feat-accomplishing
toddler, weren't even wearing
tightrope walker's slippers!

Is that a rain stick you carry
or a balancing prop?

with Love to Joy
