On December 17, 2009, I made a decision to pursue my poetry more actively, because I felt I have been gifted by God with these words, which needed to be shared. At that time, I had posted 5,305 poems to my blog, Poetry Where You Live, http://www.raymondafoss.blogspot.com. In the 7 months before 12/17/09, I had written 1,286 poems. That large output was part of what led to that decision at that time.
In the seven months since 12/17/09, I have written 2,711 more poems, or more than double the amount of the prior seven months. I now have more than 8,015 poems and more than 2,500 in the last 6 months.
I don’t know what God has in store for me, or how my continuing and growing gift fits into God’s plan for my life and my vocation; but I thank God and praise the creator, our savior, and the guiding Spirit for helping me grow in this season and for the joy and encouragement these words have given to me and to others, all around the world.
