Jam Jar

There's a question
and what it wants to know,
your name and nomenclature

Are you weighty
have you settled down ?
Pure  inquisiveness

Have you a jam jar of wild nettles
or wild thyme,
and have you cherished your loved ones 

Someone's waiting to be heard
and to be answered evermore
like a carder of wool
combed for truth
ruminating on my hill
ever aware of the possibilities

Creative work you have penned in this one. Sometimes we love in ways that the person on the receiving end doesn't understand as love. Some want a person saying all the time, "I love you", but that person doesn't do anything in their life that seems or looks like love. Thanks for sharing this work. Sara
