Not all hearts are whole
Some come into this world in pieces
Or fracture along the way

Broken hearts slip through cracks
Through space and time
Raw, exposed

Where brave souls dwell
Sowing seedlings of beauty and truth

Keepers of gloriously shattered hearts
Loaned, not possessed

Creating visions
Fashioned by jagged edges

Transforming
Before letting go

We are all broken. That’s how the light gets in

I love this line you wrote

Keepers of gloriously shattered hearts

Beautiful poem and photos !

Thank you! Leonard Cohen also said something similar. Of course Hemingway came first. I like to believe that creating and/or caring for things is how we repair the broken...without loosing the light. Perhaps even taming and guiding it a little.

I know, Cohen said it too, I was confused because I've seen this quote so many times by different people...and a written a little bit differently - even my husband wrote a quote similar and we couldn't find the originator for years. Still not sure.

I like your insight on it as well. We need some kind of leak stopper....hmmmm. Chocolate :)

Yeeeeesssss...choc-o-late🍫

Great poetry. Greater photography. :)
