" To live in this world,
you must be able
to do three things:
to love what is mortal;
to hold it
against your bones
knowing your own life
depends on it;
and,
when the time comes
to let it go,
to let it go. "

Very thoughtful indeed!
ReplyDeleteAnd to thrive in this world you need to recognise, celebrate and share beauty. Which you do.
ReplyDeleteThe hibiscus is exquisite Cloudia, and Mary Oliver is one of my favorites. I have several poems that I love of hers.
