Underneath the soft plumage
And pretty colors
Afield,
Resides a strength to protect
From those who violence
Wield.
Underneath the pink top
The hat of power
Revealed,
Live truths of how both
Softness and thorns
Are required
To be healed.

A soft pink image indeed has the power to heal and show underlying strength, Na’Ama. This was touching and so beautifully done, I shared on my own Facebook profile and shared on Mix. I always appreciate your poetic perspective and images shared for #sundayStills!

Thank you, Terri! I thought this was the perfect prompt–on many levels–for this time. So thank YOU for posting it. Also, thank you for sharing it on Facebook and Mix (and anyplace else you wish to). I’m humbled and I’m always grateful for word-ripples. 🙂 Na’ama
