Break, Up in the Mountains

I thought I may as well post my intentions to take a break from this blog as I prepare to finish my last year of school in the mountains. It's served its purpose, being whatever I needed in the past. Things feel like they're going pretty well now and I've felt like I have less and less to put in here.
In any case, my pocket idea book is finally decomposing after five years so it's time to retire it before it falls apart. This means I'm switching to my new one and if I keep writing in here, there's less to place in there. I'll come back to this if there's something long to explain and remember, or if my life becomes troublesome and requires an outlet.
I'll still be on here to check out the Logcabineer, though.

Forgetful Yesterday

A poem I wrote as the final assignment of Pingree:

The dandelions of my youth have long blown away
Given rise to the pines of yesterday
The cement has surrounded and impounded
Me, thinking of the pines of yesterday
The drive that pushes on and on,
Tomorrow and the next and on
Yesterday left far behind
And with it so the pines
The dandelions of my youth have long blown away
Given rise to the pines of yesterday
