Soft. hard.

July 10, 2022 jacquelineobyikocha

No.

They look tired.

They seem hardened.

Some look utterly exhausted.

Beaten, bumped and scarred.

by life.

Physically and emotionally…

drained.

I pray peace for them.

a warm, soft and safe place

to lay their weary hands and heads.

As I journey with my muse to that land of all possibilities and self discovery, I hope my personal evolution will serve as a beacon of inspiration for anyone who chooses to stop by.

So much is contained in this short poem, but the message is brilliantly expressed. It’s so good to see you around Jacqueline. I haven’t read you in a long time…how are you?

  Hello Khaya, it’s good to hear from you. Life’s turns took me round several bends but my mind was always here. I am trying to get back to blogging and seeing my dear friends in this space.
