Descent of the Goddess

I like these shorter poems. So much said with few words. If only I had that talent. In a way, even those that come from fromlessness, can turn nothingness into some glistening creation. T.S. Eliot said something like this, I think, "only those who risk going too far, will find out how far one can go". xx

I love the feel of it, too. Like swimming in the warm lake of my remembered childhood.

Seems you’re going places, in a journey without movement, within. Enjoyed the read of your oneness experience and descent of grace
