Notes About The Poem

Image result for An Older Widow Woman Thinking Question MarkSixty-three years married, now widowed..Where do I differentiate from here. 

Benign Bliss Burn

"In-form polarities merge in the heart One that became two becomes one again Breath by breath feeling bliss ignition start God’s grace in-pours as we dance in the rain”
One Meets one Three emerge Three lives joined but Separate in ways One emerges to meet one One meets him and finds she's loved Yet, those two lives encompass more All the ancestors that were before Does the weight of them bare down heavily?

I appreciate the raw depth of your poem. I especially liked: 'one became two and then one again.' such poignancy in this poem. Wishing you well, Sara K.

Thank you, Sara B. We all have to differentiate ourselves for sure. Sometimes we become so tied up with the other person that we forget to develop ourselves. Sara K

Today was somewhat more difficult than some in the last week, but those days will happen. God is giving me strength, and He has plenty to spare. Thanks for the visit and nice comments. Sara K
