Rolling hills, alive
Beneath a sky brushed with gold.
Rippling wheat sways low.

"Instructions for living a life:

pay attention
be astonished
tell about it"

Crisp air, sprouting leaves,
Glistening dewdrops shimmer –
Warm awakening.

Imagine the joy
That you inflict, when others
Dance to your music

Sunday morning thought:

“You must never stop being whimsical.

And you must not, ever, give anyone else the responsibility for your life."

“Snow was falling,
so much like stars
filling the dark trees
that one could easily imagine
its reason for being was nothing more
than prettiness.”

"Everything that was broken has forgotten its brokenness. I live now in a sky-house, through every window the sun. Also your presence. Our touching, our stories. Earthy and holy both. How can this be, but it is. Every day has something in it whose name is Forever."

Thank you so much, I will try it! 🙌

Do poems need to rhyme? Yes or no? What are your thoughts on this?

I have this discussion very often, especially when it comes to modern poetry. I'm curious what you're thinking about it! #poetry
