          I fall to the heat
          of your gaze -
          A Shiva's touch
          that strips me past the bone.

          I am nothing now.

          Yet somehow...more than I ever was.

quote:
The great German poet Rainer Marie Rilke says it for us: "Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves. Do not now seek the answers which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything."
{Courtesy, goodgrief.org}

Grief...
is growth.

Poetry...
is your soul.

Thank you Eric.  You do a lot of good, here amidst our blue walls....

(smiles) Oh Eric, this is lovely, sweet friend, so succinct yet you always seem to bring a hearth of warmth to your words! (big hugggsssssss) I love your brevity too, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Eric, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
