Merri's Place

Where creativity and inspiration are celebrated!

It's all been emptied out
hollowed by need
sucked out by care and obligation
Now, I'm seeking
what fills this space?
What used to go here?
How do I find the pieces?
Do I go back? Start over?
Create, or re-create?
Either way
blessing
hollow, to be filled
not empty, to feel lost.

This wonderful poem reminds me of the story of the empty vessel and how we can't get filled up if we don't have any empty spaces available. Very heartfelt and meaningful.
Blessings!
