A woman should
always trust her intuition
no matter where it leads her
When the time is right
the answers will fall
into place
and all things will be explained
though probably never
quite understood
As comprehension unfolds
enlightenment settles
into tiny crevices
she breaks
into tiny pieces
that fall like rain

This my dear describes me all too well.
Thank you

If the comprehension unfolds and the enlightenment settles into tiny crevices, then shouldn't that be what holds her tiny pieces together? I would think so, but you may not agree. It's a lovely poem, and always so deep. Deeper than even I, your sister can fathom. I envy you, that you find (or make) the time to write. I love you, sis. I should print out all your poems, bind them and give them to you as a present, though I fear there are some you'd rather have stay in the computer than find the black and white of printed page. I know why and I understand. A great write as alway. Oh, I read what you asked me to. I am amazed.

Everything fell into place nicely until that last unsettling line. I guess that's pretty much the way it goes in my life anyway. Just when I think I've got it all together it falls apart.
