In the telling, it becomes clear
the universe sneezes, and
the door smashes–
with the thunder of hooves, a jump—
into far-flung tomorrow—
jump again—
there are no pauses,
and though the colors never cease
galloping through space,
still, we’re always surprised
to find them
where they’ve always been
in the dream pastures within.
I wasn’t sure where I was going with this poem from Kerfe’s Oracle 2 words, but it ended up wanting to be part of Jane’s herd.
Beautiful
Thank you!
And so it goes ’round and ’round. Wonderful!
Thank you! 🙂
😊
I really like how impressionistic this poem is. The meaning is in the experiencing, not the parsing.
Thank you so much, Liz. Yes, I think that’s it exactly. 🙂
You’re welcome, Merril. 🙂
Tlbings we discover, in the surprises of, day to day, quite ordinary, but, wonderful, and, these are the most, meaningful moments of life we live…
Thank you!
Things

On the rampage?
Maybe?
How lovely! ❤
Thank you! 😊
The more the merrier. This herd is as big as we want it to be 🙂 I wonder what made us go this way? Just the word horse? I love it anyway.
Thank you!
I guess we don’t see “horse” that often–
but they represent a sort of freedom I suppose.
They do, even though they’re domesticated.
You had me at “the universe sneezes.” Nice pairing with Jane’s.
Thank you so much, Lisa! 💙
You’re welcome!
It’s a good place to find them. “Horse” was a must-use word. (K)
Thank you, and thank you for the words.
I’m surprised I’ve remembered to do them every Sunday so far. But Sundays I usually see the girls so it helps me remember what day it is.
I hope you have a lovely day with your girls today.
We had coffee in the park and saw, besides the usual pigeons, starlings, sparrows and robins, both a downy woodpecker and a redheaded woodpecker, which was pecking on the path with the pigeons! The downy was going up and down the tree next to us. That was a treat.
That sounds lovely! I hear woodpeckers a lot, but I’m seldom able to see them in the trees. That is so cool that you saw one on the ground with the pigeons. Sometimes I’d see one at our window feeder, but we taken it down because I think it attracted mice.
So beautiful, l love this
Thank you very much, Rene!
You’re welcome!
