A root will burrow a long way for water.
A branch will stretch a long way for light.
Where does the water come from
to power the burrowing search for water?
Where does the light come from
to power the stretching search for light?
When I do what is already in me to do,
it is the doing that matters, not the done.

Thirst
Reaching out for tenderness
Doesn’t fully quench distress.
Something fails the human mind,
Dissatisfied with love’s design.
The water and the fire keep
The hearth a heart that will not sleep.
