Oh howdy there, do are available.
I could seem like I’m simply sitting right here, pen in hand scribbling in my pocket book, however I’m not. I’m really perched with my toes on the moon, watching the world at play beneath me. Do you know I could make these individuals fall in love and people individuals combat? Oh sure. I can provide that man braveness and that little one a brand new buddy. I can despair on the state of the world, or attempt to make sense of it. I can attain into the hearts of different individuals and make them really feel much less alone.
Now I’m flying throughout time zones and centuries, guided by the wind, my manner lit by the celebrities. I’m girl, I’m chook. I’m the wild shadow of sorrow and the aromatic flower of life. I’m hope, I’m reminiscence. I’m time itself.
Possibly later in the present day I’ll carve poetry into the riven bark of the weeping willow within the backyard of my childhood house. I’d go to the shore, smash my harm on the rocks and watch my tears turn into the ocean. Maybe I’ll sleep within the forest and wake to a world of speaking animals. I’d collect with others round a fireplace telling tales of seeds and bones buried deep – or fill historic caves with laughter and tune. Or I’d simply be right here, quietly at my desk, sipping tea, ready for the solar to rise.
