emptiness

except love of self.

  1. before we can love
    truly
    we must
    love ourselves

  2. Your poem is one of the reasons I love short poetry. I think that that are so powerful.

  3. Mary, you've hit the muse on the head! Yes, short is often better. I can't write a poem a day because of outside interference but Mama Zen is sure stoking the fire and I try to keep up with you.

  4. Loving oneself is to make sure one is better equipped to face up to others. Nicely Mary!

  5. Sometimes small is just right. You're doing great, Mary. (I have already got to the hair-pulling stage.)
