Me, myself and I

Hi beautiful, 

I have recently been indulging in the delights of Sibella Court's books. Bowerbird, Gypsy, Nomad and Etc. are the four she has published to date. I so identify with her love of the everyday and gathering the warmth of the memories around you as a cosy shawl. 

She writes so honestly. I quote from one of her books "Seek out beauty and meaning in everything, then embrace and display it." 

In her book "Etc" she writes a short verse titled "Me". 

This verse inspired me to write my own. Here it is.

I think in many directions,

I see in colour and sound.

I am a gatherer and collector, 

A keeper of memories. 

I observe the everyday, the humble.

I am a thinker,

A creator of the tangible.

I am vulnerable,

Sensitive.

I hurt easily, 

My skin is thin, 

transparent at times.

I am confident,

strong. 

I hug easily,

My love is real, 

genuine always.

With love

Cara.
