Inside is where it all gets real.
Despair destroys the dance:
Feet won’t move. Then comes that song
That lets forgiveness sing along
To give us one more chance.
Linked to K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge with the theme “inside” and to Debbie Roth’s Forgiving Fridays.
Photos: “Inside the Chicago Botanic Garden”, above, and “In Up Close with Sun Rays”, below.
Enjoyed your poem and specially the second picture. It´s absolutely magical.

Thank you, Danik! I am glad you liked that photo. I took it into the sun not suspecting it might be useful, but then I liked that dark curving object and the orangish-red in the background.

Frank, this is magnificent! I love the playfulness of the poem that lifts the despair. It’s like forgiveness – brings such healing joy. I’m going to share both of your poems for #Forgiving Fridays, so honored to do that.
Blessings to you, Frank. Thank you for sharing your heart. It’s really touching.

This poem really speaks to the heart and I love the photo. Are they Elephant Plumes?

Thank you, Etta! I don’t know what they are. They may be Elephant Plumes. They were in a section of the Chicago Botanic Garden and the sun was passing through them.
