“Leave the familiar for a while.
Let your senses and bodies stretch out
Like a welcomed season
Onto the meadows and shores and hills.”
-by Hafiz (from All The Hemispheres)
Leaving
by Carmen H Gray
Heart, absconded
Quiet and mutable
Life, responded
Jagged and beautiful
Leaves fall
Trees sigh
Birds call
Winds fly
A vessel is just a space
An undefined depression
An empty place
To fill with expression
Zero is potential
Unopened
The existential
Yet unspoken
