I shall not disturb the fountain
that pools ever silently
swirling still in the garden of thought
to run in current cycles
floating ripples
out of time
to clock
shutting the handle off
to turn on it's own
filtering sweet sorrows
that were mist in the meantime
caught adrift  
left to strain through a sieve
to rise again
bathed and cleansed
from tepid waterfalls
gleaming in the sun
to spill
as it will
and should be
flowing freely~

(sigh) Yes, some cycles are meant to be broken but when the water is moving smoothly and is being purified in the process, it is always best to let the sorrows be cleansed into new hopes and strength in your heart, otherwise you may not know what you're missing! (kiss on cheek) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lori, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Nice sense of linking images.  Glad I found you.  Ken J

Lori,

So glad to see you posting. I always know it will be something unique.
This is no exception. Liked the images, fountain in garden of thought.
This seems like acceptance and surrender and let nature take its course to a place of cleansing and renewal... written so eloquently..


Just lovely, enjoyed, Hugs, Pat

..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons..

Thanks for stopping in Dixie~
hugs to you~

You are one of passions sweetest hearts.
Thank you Ethel~

It's not easy to rock steady in the midst of all the push and pull going on...
(but I try)         Thanks Ron~

Noah~ Free flowing might be slow going but it's the natural process
that gives meaning to the shape of things to come.  
Thank you always Noah~

I thought of you when I came up with that title.  Glad you noticed!  Hugs Maur~

I'm glad you did too, thank you Kayjay~    

Always the perceptive one.  
How do you manage to hit the mark every time?
Thank you for your warm heart.  Hugs pat~

It's good to see you here, thank you Sudhir~

It is true, my inspiration comes from the  heart of the matter,
although it tends to overflow now and then.
  Thank you so much Martie.

Hi vandana~ I'm glad you enjoyed, and thanks.
