I Have Recently Experienced...

 

Frida Kahlo


I have recently experienced a loss 
which has profoundly opened up my heart, 
and while I feel my nerve endings 
to almost an unbearable extent, 
nonetheless I feel a sense of the whole universe opening up to me. 
I'd love to hold on to this intensity of heart, 
to learn to live in it more habitually. 
And instead of buffering the rawness that comes, 
I find my creative world has opened up
 to express this state, 
and so that comment 
from Rodney about a state of "rediscovery" 
really fits for me. 
Healing has become an act of blessing 
and revivifying my life, 
in order that this loss be productive 
of new sprouts of being and living.
