Plant My Feet

I need
to know
where it is
I stand
I can’t
love
the fantasy
of blowing sand
loneliness walks
upon
the grains
of desert
my feet
need
the feel
of dirt

you know pressure points, right?
well, you have found one of them with this . . .

and the sand keeps moving
and there is no solid ground

(sigh) Yes, that's where the nutrients and water fruit the earth, where the sand is nothing but particles and ashes of everything that ever walked and fell there before! (sad sigh) This is powerful, sweet friend, I love this, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Helen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
