shower
i keep taking showers today
as though hot water might wash away the pain
as though hot water might wash me away
bit by bit
until i cease to exist
i keep taking showers today

We’re listening to you. Hear you loud and clear. Do what you need to to become a bit happier again. We’ll hold you in the light.
So sorry that warm water isn’t all we need to ease the ache. 🙁 you have been in my thoughts & heart all day today & through this emotional week. We love you Nora- and I know it doesn’t help- but you need to hear it from us anyway.
A haiku for U.
Beautiful Nora *
Still in the depth of mourning *
So many love you
our love to you this day and always,
Cathi and The Girls
Oh Nora, my heart just aches for you, and there are no words that feel right. It seems like there are days filled with light and love, and there are dark and bitter days, like today. But your shaman friend wrote this beautiful poem that makes me think of you today-keeping your heart and mind open….
In the long and winding hollows of the heart
Where neither sun nor moon,
but only pale amber light, shines
from the long and winding hollows of the heart.
There, rest awhile.
There you may call my name.
And I will come.
And I will come
As quietly
And as gracefully
And as certainly
As the stars are called into the sky
Just after dusk
Coaxes the dreaming eye
Open.
