when my heart feels the weight of the possibilities she feels too small when my heart hears the whispers of the shoulds she feels too torn when my heart smells the ashy odour of the fears she feels too much heat when my heart sees your smile she fills with shining, shimmering, light
The colour of the sky *the ocean * Elizabeth and Maeve * people who reach beyond the ordinary * genuine generosity *good food * watching things grow * the miracle of birth *a woman's power *tenderness in all its forms * the cycle of life * courage * people with a sense of fun * compassion * beautiful jewellery * art that is made from the heart - without a view to the purchaser or the market but made because it has to come *Clarissa Pincola Estes * grace

the witness knows which thoughts pass, ...
