What’s In The Basket?
(drawing text)
I.
What? I ask my self …
Will I find the peace I so
desire, the healing?
(4 Jl 2021)
II.
No-one may see what is in
that tightly woven basket –
perhaps it is the moon, or
perhaps ‘tis nothing
(14 Mr 2021)
III.
Through the woven reeds of this
basket shines a golden light …
what could it be – or who could
be – in this basket?
(8 D 2021)
IV.
I open the woven rush
lid & peer within to see
what may be hidden within
& in those shadows
(29 Ap 2022)
