There\'s a standing exercise from Chinese Taoism called \"Holding the Tree,\" or \"Stake standing.\" It\'s traditionally done while standing in front of a tree.
Beautiful write, by the way!

There is a sense of deep yearning to express emotions and beauty that can\'t be captured by traditional means, and to connect with the natural world on a fundamental level, feeling and seeing with the roots and leaves of a tree. It\'s a beautiful and evocative piece that captures the desire for a more enlightened existence.🙏🏻🕊

Touche! A powerful poem, Soren, Your poem \"Ouroboros of Love and Hate\" examines the intricate, interconnected relationship between love and hate, implying that they are two sides of the same coin. The imagery of the ouroboros—a snake consuming its own tail—symbolizes the cyclical nature of these emotions and their eternal connection. Your poem explores themes of desire, consumption, and the duality of human emotions, portraying a relationship where love and hate coexist, each fueling the other, creating an endless cycle that is both destructive and all-consuming. It aims to stimulate thought about the nature of love and hate, encouraging readers to reflect on their experiences and perceptions of these powerful emotions. It uses vivid imagery and metaphor to illustrate the often tangled relationship between these opposing forces.

A powerful, short, and simple painting, Soren, Your poem revolves around guilt and the struggle for forgiveness. It suggests that our past mistakes and regrets can consume us, likening guilt to a destructive fire. The reference to Lethe—a river in Greek mythology associated with forgetfulness—implies a longing for release from the burdens of the past. Your poem captures the tension between enduring guilt and the hope for redemption. Which we should all learn to do! I am so guilty of this!

Ah...the alluring waters of Lethe. Here\'s hoping! Excellent, my friend! A wonderful poem that speaks truth to me. Guilt, pain, suffering, all those things seem so tempting to forget, but for the beauty and joy one experiences as well. But we have to ask, does the joy and beauty out weight the pain and suffering? Who knows, but maybe, just maybe, not having any memory might be true peace. Boy, this is sounding more and more like Nirvana! LOL! Just let go and cease to be. All the same, my friend, this poem really got me thinking and for that, it gets a major fave. Well done on this! 🌹👏

Good write SB. There\'s something about \'heaping burning coals on an enemies head\', so that they turn from their wrong ways. Meant symbolically.
