Soliloquy III

Every place of ruin
was once one of beauty
till it touches the pillow of rust
and sleeps

Future was the God of Fertility
abundant plains just waiting to be replanted
Now I am the harvested bounty, supplicated
Someone will want me
for who I am
It’s a warm bucket of rain that drizzles down.

ago
it would have bothered me
now
I linger in it

Oh how very thought provoking this piece is, Jeff...

(big hugggssssss) Oh Jeff, I feel that so many of us take for granted what truly is fertile and promising for tomorrow and now we have condensed it all like some paramedic method, taking all the opportunities and what ifs and ah ha's, and shredding them away into could have beens, also rans, and once's. Tomorrow is something we should hold dearly for our future children and it feels so unstable to me sadly, this is a powerfully aching and thoughtful write, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jeff, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
