Craving Calm (tanka)

At my core, fire –
ego driving passion’s flow –
yet, it’s calm I crave
tranquil waters, petal soft
calm – solace from the burning.

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.

  4. I orchestrate CALM around me. This means have very strong boundaries…it’s the only the thing that works for me….otherwise the outside world moves in and brings with it the opposite of calmness.! I need calmness to think and be well…..:)
