raw

"oil pastel by jabelico"

In the tender
raw places
in the barren
and grieving spaces
there is medicine.
Be still.
And in your stillness
listen.
The soul sings
inside the silence
it's music a hymn
to the gentlest grace.
Listen to the lullaby.
It is balm for the heart
ease for the mind.
Like the sage says:
"True medicine is found
inside
the
wound."
