Losses Regained

Like Winter predicts Summer Dark grey suffering is not yet total green forest and blue sky loss As one cold lonely voice isolating experience need not preclude warm yet alone embracing vulnerable memories transparent images anticipating full-bodied reconnections, compassionate life choices As EarthTribal respiration invites EarthMother regeneration wombs reproductive eggs nuts seeds Surviving thistles not yet Othering weeds As painful apartheid is not yet anxious death nor anticipating life As isolating trauma discoveries are not yet therapeutic solitary thoughts anticipating glad feelings passionate about sacred intimacy, boundless recovery.
