I wait

in the hollow place

for you

You happily celebrate

the concavities

but appreciate

the complexities

of the convexities.

In hollow places

grace erases traces

of solemnity and

embraces totality,

while

I wait

for you.

    I don’t have a favorite “yet” – I’m in awe of everything you write. I’d love to give you a snapshot of my heart, dreams and thoughts and have you put it into words. You are one of the handful of people I am in extreme awe of since joining WP. Talent beyond comprehension.
