“right answer, wrong question”
I love this one so much. I keep reading it over and over. I love how it all flows into the next stanza. That one stanza, are you trying to fall; I could go running in another direction with it.
Thanks. I found the poem from an old notebook yesterday. It felt right today.
I enjoy reading your blog and therefore have nominated you for the Versatile Blogger award.
Still not sure how this all works, but click here to find out: http://fairytaleepidemic.wordpress.com/2013/01/15/351-blog-awards/

Beautiful….
A word that keeps popping up lately, “surrender.” Love it. {{{hugs}}} Kozo

“Illusions of strength.” Brilliant. Yes, they are illusory. And vulnerability is the true strength. {{{hugs}}} Kozo

I’ve read this over and over, first trying to see where the magic lies, how it works. Then, simply falling, willing to fall into the magic, surrender, over and over. Lovely, GS.
some things flow
and I’m unable
to question

or realize
why
thankfully
I like the rhythm – like an incantation – in the 2nd to 4th stanzas. Is there a reason the eyelids ARE closed? What do you make of “eyelids closed” or even “eyelids close”? The active voice is keener in most cases.
Hmm …

thanks
for the comment
Hearing poetry is my favorite. Your audios are so nice to have. I closed my eyes for this one. Surrender is my only choice today. I wish I liked it more.

wonderful imagery you have put out here. I love the last one the most. As a race, we all need to surrender to her instead of trying to fight her for every breath. She will care for us if we let her.
Cheers
