SO FRAGILE AS WE
GROW

things applaud your wonder.
Life claps in awe of the Divine's performance.
When your veil is removed, you, dear --
you, everyone -- will see
that your being is
Holy.

Raising their children is
the primary care and purpose
of some -- this is a blessed state,
for an oasis of love
is found in the
desert.

The heart only reflects the
Sky when it is giving and
compassionate.
Who would want to stand before a mirror that was shattered,

An oasis
