In cosmological time

No more than a breath

      Thank you Dearest Nev, you always pick me up when I feel I'm at my lowest. We've had drought here, and not just with the weather. Thank you for being there my friend!

    • Teddy.15

      Oh my dear Bella, you got the best ever senryu, I'd say you are an inspiration. ❤️

      • Bella Shepard

        Dearest Teddy thank you so much, you are a light in my day. I can rely on my friends to help me back up when I start to falter, and there you are. I've had difficulty focusing of late, but I love being here and will continue to hopefully do my best. God bless!

            Your precious words are gold to me dear friend. I am privileged to commune with such a kindred and beautiful spirit, as you are.

              In cosmological time, we are still attached to the umbilical cord -
              a fascinating read

                so, so true!
                illuminatingly succinct
                a great shorty, dear Poet
