You are
castles
and angels
flowers
and waterfalls
you are
escape..

I a fool
dark shadows
and cloud loom
a crack
in ceiling
that
drips
drips
drips

A SHatTering
of peace
like broken glass
shards in fields
where you'd run
barefoot
if not for me

I am
Mondays
11 o'clock news
memories surpressed

I am sorry

I like this Raph. Except that I'm not sure you need to apologize for being who you are...we should learn to accept everyone without apology.

I should print this and pass it out...
you said it much nicer than I ever could!

Forgiving is a part of true friendship,
it humbles us and keeps us whole.

(big hugggssssss) Oh Raphael, this is so very sad, sweet friend, my heart goes out to all who have to watch the depressing news every evening and find ways to protect their children from the disturbing messages! (sad sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Raphael, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

YOU ARE
the slip of the
tongue...
the slip of
the pen...

you are
human

not a God

I am...
listener,
reader,
open minded
earthly
receiver
of your slips
of life

keep planting

there is much
fertile ground

I am assuming you're familiar with plant 'slips'?

LOL, I thought it might confuse a little Plant 'slips' are cuttings...small pieces of the WHOLE that can give rise to a whole new plant, when planted and nurtured properly.

Sometimes single thoughts and words can do the same.

The words "I apologize" can really help a relationship grow.
I know, it's kind of an out-there-in-space concept, but it seems to fit in with what you said in this poem.
