A seastar lay upon an endless shore,
a coral splash on miles of white.

Scooped up in her small palm,
it curled into a puckered bulb.

Breath drawn by its hidden life,
she could not stop her sigh,
nor its questioning tail...

to show her the way.

It gave no movement, no stir,
nor sign on the white...
but what did she expect, an answer,
some quiet insight?

Strained thoughts spilled over the star,
"I've come too far - too far if grains on this shore
be sands of time I've left too many behind -
too many not to know the way."

The answer came in a slow blossom...

that held a truth only the simplest could convey:
that Every star
                         points Every way.

This is just about how possibility is often easier to see when we don't complicate matters too much, and just trust that we'll make the right choice.

Really simple, but that's the point really :)

Hi, yes, it's me, the girl with the foolishly posted forum thread. And I definitley can relate to this. I can see why you wrote it, too. It's very good, and I'm sure that there are many others out there who could use reading this as well.

I threw a small stone down at the reflection of my image in the water...I burst as it shattered through me like a bullet through a bottle...
and I'm expected to believe that any of this is real?
:iconhenre:
