What was it I was seeking? A former me…perhaps too vividly Snow melts and so erases where once has been Or good shall be much better in the purchase of pretend Should there be less expectation? Less deep sensation in a moment’s know, of could like snow Or candy on the tongue if but a taste to tempt the waters flow Some kind of transformation that may leave in death a former so What was it I was hoping? A sturdy self, so cast like stone and banned from gentle handling Leaving heaps of what love cannot face upon me to be waste Or yet I see that what was meant to be was simply of my taste A trinket in the market place…a sense of time inside the trace That shutters close so simply viewed…and never touched in gratitude Or grace…that teardrops stream the face of gone and truth buys certain fortitude Yet love is food Copyright Kkh 2/23/04 |

Never give away the gift you have been given, that you might always be able to share and show to others a part of you that releases what graces these pages... |

I can't believe the wisdom that was captured here and written down so eloquently. This demands several more readings-may I drop this one into the library? Wonderfully written! This one hit home. Sadie |

Just went to the library and checked out this one. Thought I'd send it back up again. I enjoyed reading it again. |
