Holding
a heart deepens daily,
when it is held open the way
gold-shot dark clouds
stretch the blue
wide open
and hold, and hold,
til the glorious sun drops

Intriguing concept of holding open the heart!
Your photo is worth a thousand words! It is stirring my imagination :)
a perfect blending of photo and words... gorgeous!
Stunning picture, and words that make the heart want to open and hold, hold.
Love the feel of clouds holding the sky waiting on the sun to drop through. Tension and relief. Well done!!
There is so much here to think about...
The more of that gold our heart can hold on to, the more light we have to get us through the night!
Is it enough? All we can do is keep trying...
just came by for my mb fix, and as always happy to have done so. you are quite simply my favourite poetess and the best start to a day. Your beloved is a very lucky soul, to be around someone with such a huge openess to discovering love, fresh and new, every day. Thank you for your beauty.
beautiful photo, being vulnerable is a little harder, but I'm learning...Nel
Beautiful!
Holding
Encore un beau Bleu ...
Paix !
When the heart is held open.
If only everyone had the courage to do so...If only.

Endurance is key. Amen.
Oh this is exquisite. And such magnificent colors in this photo!
yes
these words reveal the heart of one who understands true intimacy.
this image is extraordinarily beautiful...just like the words.
Absolutely breathtaking.
Doors to my heart were broken so badly they cannot close. Doubtless for the best.
Witness the true expression of the Divine with words and vision.
Beautifull.
