Live free, say I
Climb, climb, high
Reward yourself
Pick a book from the shelf
Read to your heartโs content
It is time well spent
Breathe deeply,
Inhale completely,
- Peace and calm -
Let it be a balm,
To your soul.
Reset how you roll,
Live free, be an emissary
On this third day of February.

Denise Lindquist is writing a poem a day in February. I'm late to the party, but here is my start. (Not sure if I can keep up, or remember to do one per day, but I'm giving myself kudos for beginning. ๐)

The Forsyth House Fire
Since 1851, Forsyth House has stood on the corner of Union Street and Gordon Street in the heart of Glasgow. Its iconic, or was... because on Sunday 8th of March, 2026, a fire broke out in a small, seemingly un-named shop in the building and tore all that history down. As I write, the rubble is still unsettled and the street is still blocked off. Central Station is quiet on the upper level, and around 30 small businesses have quite literally gone up in smoke.
