A kernel of hope
Lives
Deep inside
Protected
Against the pain
The struggle
Grows
When tended
Memories ignite
Nurture
Reward
Fades
When tested
Hurt
Discarded
For graven choices
Echoes
In the dark
Against the shadows
In my heart
I really hope something turns up soon Merry :-) but in the meantime sending you a big freckled hug x
Well at least you've got the important bits sorted Merry, the others will happen with time:)Quote:

To stand for the constant presence of process
And always to seem the same;
To be steady as a rock and always trembling,
Having the hard appearance of death
With the soft, fluent nature of growth,
One's Being deceptively armored,
One's Becoming deceptively vulnerable,
To be so tough, and take the light so well,
Freely providing forbidden knowledge
Of so many things about heaven and earth
For which we should otherwise have no word-
Poems or people are rarely so lovely,
And even when they have great qualities
They tend to tell you rather then exemplify
What they believe themselves to be about,
While from the moving silence of trees,
Whether in storm or calm, in leaf and naked,
Night or day, we draw conclusions of our own,
Sustaining and unnoticed as our breath,
And perilous also-though there has never been
A critical tree-about the nature of things.
nice haiku merry :-)Quote:

Mingled with these, smooth bean and wrinkled pea
And go along with you ere you lose sight
Of what you came for and become like me,
Slave to a springtime passion for the earth.
How Love burns through the Putting in the Seed
On through the watching for that early birth
When, just as the soil tarnishes with weed,
The sturdy seedling with arched body comes
Shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs.
