Empty Vessel Such it is, then, the drought of the soul when feeling old and dry one forgets that the cracks in the vessel must have watered life on the way to the here and now so do not pain me and do not cry out that the mind is empty of words for the moment as there is always a chance that rumination will cause the required rumble of words to well forth, should they have purpose, and with the utmost hope that they would then most certainly belong. No, do not cry for an empty vessel. ©Karilea Rilling Jungel 24 September, 2000 [This message has been edited by Sunshine (edited 09-24-2000).] |

 I liked this alot. Writing is quite a process as you have explained nicely. If we can just get "ruminatory" our pots (vessels) will surly be full and if we have a few extra cracks... that's OK. Nicely done. Bob <>< |

Dear Karilea: How beautiful! The cracks to me are symbols of our humaness. Then when we are surrendered to His Grace, it pours out to others, to bless and uplift. You always manage to do just that with your lovely inspirational poetry. Thank you, Love, Ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |
