Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens so you can find the one line already written inside you. Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small, bright, and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart. David Whyte

Haiku: Shades of Love

on March 8, 2016

Sentimental
Born in memory
Distillation slightly sweet
Colored palest mauve.

Passionate
Born of flesh and fire
Fermentation teases tongue
Colored deep red rose.
