Thank you to all those who attended our Living with Mistakes session on 14th and 15th August 21.
Here are the two group poems written by the participants on each day.
Enjoy!
Group Poem
14/8/21
Currents and tides hide behind your eyes
when the river is still, I can see
reliving the unrepeatable current
feeling the depths of the river and absorbing it
moving gently and purposely over the earth
sensing the flow of nature
unrestrained boots towards the horizon.
Oh, Mother, carry me down to the river
down to the sea
Oh, Mother, carry me down to the river
no sounds just silence
flowing.
Ask Me
I do so miss the distractions
me myself and I,
what is stopping me from asking?
Rejoice for we can turn and look at the silent river and wait
and carry it for a little while
beneath the icy water unseen, flows cold and clear
no sounds just silence
my silent voice speaks
failing me forward.
