Every word, once unheaded
has become a collection strung on string
treasured held closely next to skin

and I finger the strand thoughtfully
reflecting on how each has individually
been molded and shaped
polished by years of passing
before being passed on

handed down, each by one
who has already learned
that understanding will finally come
to one seeking
through trial and error

while holding on
to cherished pearls
of wisdom...

seek the flame within yourself
and let your soul be cleansed by
the fire of love.  Axel Ekenstierna

Pearls of another
who only thought to polish
a moment in passing by
are true strains of love's light
and life, in humanity...

little one....thank you
for the repost

of special.
