cloche
the power of lost
possibility
armored over and
bitter coated
speckle-pretty and
color faded
trapped
in time’s musty
closet
or is it hope
redefined
pale protection
roundly painted
and preserved
in smooth treasure box
waiting
for polish and
jeweled key
to crack wide open

all it takes is the right person
with the key…and it opens to new life…

it can be both… sometimes i think we need it for protection…sometimes we need that key that will crack it open

A wonderful juxtaposition that illuminates how our sense making travels from one pole to another. I absolutely love the photograph.

Or is it both. Maybe it’s all of them at once. Either way, I can feel these words rolling around in my heart.
