As women, our life stages come with unique risk factors.
Like when our estrogen levels drop during menopause,
causing the risk of heart disease to go up.

The End smell after the rains, the threads of people walking, living, loving, walking the paths of lives unseen, living in a world of unknown roads, loving amidst the shadows of choices,
stretching like silk into the future, paths of good intention, leading somewhere, anywhere,
to shake off the dirt underfoot and stand in the streets looking up
taking notice
being seen
yeah
A Country Walk by M.K. Blackwood
I think I'd like to wander lonely as a cloud
get out of London and into the country lose the street lamps and the high-rises I think I'd like to wander lonely as a cloud,
get out of London and into the country,
lose the street lamps and the high-rises,
leave the tangled loves and lives behind,
and learn to weave a new way,
a quieter way, in hill and dale,
a greener life to all the senses,
daffodils and buttercups and willow boughs,
scenting shelter away from the hurly-burly of strifes looking out of lurking windows. There's a lot to be hoped
for beyond the limits, if I could float out into the wilds, because the city cannot confine
a cloud.
Biscuits by MKB There's a game we play every week,
Break time rounds of hide and seek.
Playground games move to the workplace,
Now with smiles and far less pace,
Breaking the rules with ones of our own,
Friendly misdirection that we hone.
Under tea towels or back of a drawer,
once in the depths of the stationery store,
admin and researcher, battle of wits,
seeking the edge of calling it quits.
Never quite there, at least not as yet,
more than just biscuits, our battlefield set.
The others might think that we're wasting our time,
but lightening the mood's not
that heinous a crime. Rains by Mr. Blackwood. Up high above it all, clouds hold the promise of rain
with potential, carry the premise of waters to wash away the marks that everything bears.
The rains seek release in downpours and outbursts...
Martin?
The rains seek release in downpours and outbursts
expressed when the weather turns to action
pouring out, tumbling down, spilling forth
the sharpness and the purity fall
acquires new character on the descent
comes into contact with ideas of the environment
picks up pollutants as it slides down surfaces
clarity clouded as it condenses
potential now tarnished in gutter overflow
and poor Incy Wincy is washed out.
