Love’s Waters

Love’s waters rise
defy the impossibility
of our sedentary walls –
tides and emotions
like sculptors
reshaping the contours
of opposition, softening
the places where hearts meet.

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential.

  1. Oh…reshaping contours…makes me think of the importance of tending to those harsh, sharp edges, too. Beautiful, beautiful. As Marsha said (above) that softening is a necessary ingredient in relationship-building. xo! 💕

  2. That is a beautiful poem, VJ. I loved these phrases, “sedentary walls” and “softening
    the places where hearts meet.” It spoke to me about the way time does soften the places where our hearts meet. If they don’t get soften, the relationship doesn’t work. 🙂
