If only the peace I feel right now
could be stored up and released later
when cruelty surrounds me
in the dark
during nightmares.
I envy the trees that grow at crossroads. They are never forced to decide which way to go. . .
Some people are born with words flowing in their veins.
Marriage without love is just one more twisted form of slavery.
Can it be true that freedom only exists when it is a treasure, shared by all?
Books are enchanted. Books help me travel.
Books help me breathe.
I don't understand the whole thrilling verse, but I love the way poetry turns ordinary words into winged things that rise up and soar!
