This is so in keeping with everything spiritual I believe in, Danusha. We are gathering the shards of a broken world. I love this blog. Thanks.

I love the idea of a poem trying to piece something back together and make us/ the world whole.

"I believe that when we listen to a poem, when we follow it where it’s going, it is also trying to bring us back into wholeness." Yes. This is so eloquent and beautiful. Thank you for these words!

I love all of this! I find that, in the writing life, I keep coming back to patience with silence ...reverence for the waiting as I allow the seed, the thread, the stitch to reveal their nature in their own time.

This is a remarkable reminder for poets and poetry lovers why poetry plays a huge part in working our way to not only inner peace but to the peace of the world.
