*******My Muse Hides********

my muse hides
in pearl drops of ink
waiting to make a splash
turning into
an indelible mark
solidifying thought

but she casts no shadow
running down
the window pane
now becoming
rivulets of tears
pools of pain

to which I bring her
within my grasp
once more
pooling each tear
each pearl drop
in solidified thought

#12 Small Stone: Woven Ties

 

Life woven together intrinically
with indelible ink that may fade
with time but not alter the
unalterable truth of those we
connect to as families of origin
with ties that bind over time
