Over there She grows

 

 

 

 

She scraped at the four walls falling
digging through to a perfect opening
there on the other side
She glimpsed such magnificent depths
caught hold and held strong in that moments notice
a quince grove
sown to beauty
blooming
with flowering trees of purpled leaves
drenched with love under the sunshine
knowing at once it was where She belonged
climbed on through the rabbit hole
and thus escaped this horrid place
where black and white photographs
bled no forgiveness
giving their concrete expressions
She left them
to lie along a couloured distance
resting Her head in the tall soft grasses
She got what She came for
and began to grow
never leaving
not now not ever
She had found
Her roots

"black and white photographs bled no forgiveness" leads me to think there is a past the character is trying to escape. Leaving the past behind and starting over is not easy, but sometimes very necessary. Beautifully written with great metaphor and imagery. I enjoyed this one a lot. Oh, and the graphic is stunning!

Thank You so much Lydi -Indeed escape we all need it don't we...and ones that speak to our inner growth ...is a healing thing as much a distraction from the gray upon life!!!
