I am closer to the heart
Of this mystery
I am closer to the weave
Of hidden history

I am closer to the space
Between the worlds
I am closer to the flags
As yet unfurled

I am closer to your mind
And your extremes
I am closer to the wishes
The might have beens

I am closer to the light
That quells the dark
I am closer to the flame
The errant spark

About Helen

I'm drawn to blogging as a way to share ideas and consider what makes us who we are. Whether it's in our working life or our creativity, expression is a means to connect.
