Odd, waves receding
Exposing sharp, barren shoals
Tsunami warning.
Easier to sleep
Ignore the storm’s destruction
One island untouched.
Another deep crack
In the heart’s very center
More waves tower, break.
All is swept away
Thoughts of higher ground, safety
Lost in the fury.
Prevention? Easy.
Be open to connection
Look, see, listen.

Eileen, a great series in building on each Ku... Well done. Coming from one who spent the last 4 1/2 years living in America's prime Tsunami Zone.... Seaside, Oregon, your words of advice are very wise.
Cheers,
Dan |

And live, Eileen, to see another day, one we can observe perhaps
from that other universe, or vice versa. -gene.

COMMUNICATION IS SO IMPORTANT...BUT SOMETIMES WE CANNOT COMPREHEND THE SEVERITY OF A SITUATION UNTIL IT IS UPON US. WRITTEN WELL WITH GOOD IMAGERY. THANKS FOR SHARING AND BLESSINGS.

You describe how close we are to destruction, to the whims of a storm - one place, unscathed, another, devastated - well done, Eileen.
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla. |
