Note on Love

Does Love conquer all? Can it mute the dangerous war cries of jealousy and betrayal? Love opens the senses in awareness, Of others' pain radiating, Please remember their pain may be the soil, Out of which vengeance is born. Will your love soothe? Or will it put you harm's way? Will it, in fact, lead to healing? No doubt true love also includes A healthy dose of safe distance For oberservation-- This the poets may forget to mention. Clare Buoyant  

Wondering...

What a fine line it is to maintain one's sense of wonder Or to swim in utter delusion. With all the alcohol consumed, Meds (whether prohibited or legalized) ingested, Enchantment appears buried under the rubble of disappointment and terror. Trust that you can tap into childlike simplicity, And forego quick fix. Love, Clare
