was it magic or destiny
that such diverse paths touched,
crossed
without
either one swallowing the other?
no matter,
Thought said,
perhaps
humans
could create their own
magic:
allow others’ destinies
to blend with their own
without
opening their mouths
to swallow.

Hi Marcia! I really like this poem and the very cool photo! I really like what you said about allowing others’ destinies to blend with our own without anyone having to swallow up the other. Really nice!
The photo goes so nicely with this, and the poem… lovely, especially the last part: “allow others’ destinies/to blend with their own/without/opening their mouths/to swallow.” Very profound.
I really like the way your words and art complement each other so well. Diverse paths touching yet somehow not swallowed up.
Poem and pic just perfect. Loved it!
I’m going with destiny.
Just because I can
I think it was magic
Perfect magic.
excellent graphic… i have to wonder about where thought and magic have intersected in my life… i know it has to have happened… but it doesn’t stand out for me… i love the premise tho……
This is happening to me right now. So I can relate to this too well..
I can’t decide – there’s magic in the not knowing and destiny is never quite clear. Am I making sense?
