Could someone tell me how to restore my Uncategorized category? I’ve been trying to get all my poetry into the poetry category, to delete non-poetry posts that I think aren’t relevant anymore, but I still want Uncategorized. It disappeared on me.
Thanks.
Oops. Never mind. I see how it happens. I just have to write a post and put it in “Uncategorized,” and that will begin to build up again.

When storms send thunder, jagged lights of blue,
when storms rain down upon the morning dew,
when storms are captained by aura’s crew,
when storms approach I don’t know what to do
because a seizure comes to black my view.

Fatigue falls over me. I’m fraught with fright,
and weakness has invaded legs and arms.
I want to fly among the stars, a kite
without a string of worries, no alarms.
Familiar, though, this feeling, and I know
I’m toxic on my medicine. The thoughts
race here, there, high and low, and fast and slow.
I whirl through neuro-space like astronauts.

The land waits for the rain that’s sure to come.
Clouds hang down low, the sun turns off its light.
I hang on every beam and every crumb
of daytime as it fights approaching night.
Come, warmth and sunshine, pour your gold on me
and I will pay you richly for your time.
Thank you for bounteous flower banks. I agree,
and love the beauty of spring’s gifts sublime.

Three white tulips dance,
front-door invitation in,
spring’s decoration.

Rain refreshes earth.
Seizure clouds threaten with grey
cotton gloves, silent.

I watch snake slither
in grass and am reminded
of the seizure coil.
