Spring Cleaning
Images pass before me
as I sit in the humid stillness
that soaking rain has not washed away
If Soul Food vanished,
if my words disappeared
Would I be the same?
Same person I was
Stopping to question
attachments to material things
Do I need the things that surround me?
Who would I be
If I abandoned some of the things
To which I have become attached?
I look and wonder
who would I be?

I found this very powerful. Of course the pic is strong and very centred. The bird is lovely.
This is Heather wondering who she would be without me darling. But with that Partridge there, I agree, she has little to worry about.
Lois you are indeed wise. These words speak the truth. Life's gatherings. I believe I agree with what you say here. Some things are just too wonderful and meaningful to part with.
Sometimes you do say the nicest things Lois. Thank you for that. Fortunately I do know I am more than wife, mother, webmaster, teacher,friend, sister and colleague. I am a fully wired part of the universe, in tune with that universe. It is enough to be here.
