the hermit's speech

the hermit's speech

A Poem by Everett Dulin

oh child, born of the sea.
a tide of loss, love, the want and need.
overwhelmed one, heart of gold.
the songs of hope who'll never be told.

they sing stories of you,
the rivers and creeks.
from the depths of my ankles,
i see from where they speak.

beyond the storms, their rapids divine.
beyond the stars,
beyond the end.
each story destined to relive time.

sweet forgotten one, your sorrow on show
your home speaks fondly of you.
oh how you've loved, how you've grown.
they sing, each arroyo weeps.

Oh my god this is so cute it's killing me. We need to make you popular here, man. Everyone should read these. And why are you giving me Lana Del Rey vibes?
"oh how you've loved, how you've grown.
they sing, each arroyo weeps." this is wonderful i cant even breathe
