Craving compassion I seek the wisdom of the river – Her glimmering waters reflect sun’s warmth I am at once calmed and uplifted – seagull raises his wings emits an ungodly chuckle. (Image, my own, is not actually a Laughing Gull, but the title fits.)
Bridging was his MO caught me post divorce when needs were slippery Sapped my spirit drained my love, then latched onto new youth – Most liberating gift he ever gave me. (Image from personal collection)
The waters of my soul are still tonight the harshness of day’s light, easing now into quiet solitude. I surrender to renewal knowing that no matter what tomorrow brings I have peace within to guide me. (Submitted for Eugi’s Causerie weekly prompt: renewal. Image my own. Peace Within first appeared here June, 2018.)
I believe that alligators are fast on the ground – unlike our crocs here, but who would indeed hang around? 🙂
