I am here

Branches like feathers (by the lake).

1.
Filled with gratitude –
comfort, nourishment, questions.
Put judgments aside.

2.
Care for the hurt spots,
troubled places, dark feelings –
only gentleness.

3.
A safe place to stop.
Rest in silence – deep and wide,
right here in the midst.

yay haikus!

& those trees do look feathery
but also like the skeleton-part of a leaf, when all the leaf-bit decays in the fall & just leaves the veiny bits.
