happy fools

 

“walk the tightrope”

sweet . . . unending . . . seeking
for new tastes, new sights, new touch

sweet . . . unending . . . seeking
for the comforts of the known, familiar, old slippers of heart and mind

bouncing between these two gravitational pulls,
chasing new and old makes up much of our story life

happy fools walk the tightrope between these two
and don’t get claimed by either too easily.

“new and old stories”
