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: Redeeming Words

on April 9, 2017

Depression’s gray clouds
Hovering weight overhead
Felled with word’s penning

Precious beyond words
The Word Press community
We can be healers

Hopeful, despairing
Angry, judging, lamenting
Words written freely

Speak into hearing
Allay fears for grim future
We are not alone.

    Yes! It is amazing to connect so well with people from all over the world. I tend to explore the world with my intellect, but I respond to it straight out of my feelings. And that seems to be where we can relate across all our differences.

  4. We definitely aren’t alone Ina, it’s great to know that we all have this connection when we need it.
