Carolyn is 10 and wise and beyond her years. She wrote this in the back of her notebook.
Chamber of chambers
Love of loves
Secrets of secrets
Above and beyond
Past the city
Through the valley farms
On to the woods where the patience and pride lay.
Past all rainbows, clouds and planes
Past violence, gossip, controversy and fame
Through Earth and through sky
Through the willows of dark sky
With stars floating by.
Beyond the heavens, through Gods light,
Through positive thinking
Through pride, power, love and care
Through support and drive
Though everything true,
Through every place with dim lights,
open branches and dew.
Through sticks and stones
Through passes of shine.
Now everything is still…
Do you think it’s fine?
