Sometimes sun baked
Cracks form as I dry negated
In the heat of your words

No Spring refresh of shower
Replenishing

Edges crumble
As your step of stare
Walks across my mind
Leaving dust behind my eyes
That clouds in billows
What I thought was sky

Little grows
In drought felt hearts
But sometimes sun baked
The cracks do.

(big hugggssssss) Oh Ron, I have beared this kind of heart for so very long so I know how it feels, just as right now I'm yearning for the rain to fall and end this drought in Colorado! (sigh) This is very powerfully heartfelt, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ron, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

CatHair~ What an awesome use of metaphor...

"Little grows
In drought felt hearts
But sometimes sun baked
The cracks do."


That's sooooo sad   

Cry those tears
let down the rain
fill the cracks with water
wash out all that pain

I enjoyed reading, even though the images made me sad!

*hugs*

Your beautiful words & creativity allow me to connect with the same in myself.  
Thank you for having the courage to share yourself so that I can too
