If you will only love one another It will be enough. Why is it , As we claw our way upward Relentless hands pull us back Down? Like the crays in a wicker pot, Have no need for a lid. Escape is impossible . |

I hear a double edged comment....to leave a palm open so the butterfly may visit...knowing where the fruit is sweet... it will come back... no need to draw one down for love... but I may be wrong... regardless, I enjoyed the write.... |

Love can be so tough can't it? And what an understatement that is. Great metaphor! ~Krista |

very powerful, Helen! It's all in the conditioning....the elephant is held by a rope he could break easily...but he doesn't try....fight the conditioning and escape is possible...  |
