Seeking Solace
























"later that night
I held an atlas in my lap
and whispered
where does it hurt?

it answered
everywhere
everywhere
everwhere"

  3. Nature really does soothe wounded spirits. Looking at the vastness and beauty of the planet also points out the idiocy of human hates and prejudices.

  4. Breathtaking - and so apt with the words. Thank you - it is sad, but uplifting at the same time.

    The beach is a beautiful place for reflection I think. You have captured it wonderfully here. The poem is truly lovely.
