"But words are things, and a small drop of ink, falling like dew upon a thought, produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think." ~ George Gordon Noel Byron, Lord Byron (1788-1824)

"Searching for Miracles" Poetry & Photography by Cristina M. R. Norcross
Searching for Miracles
There is a holy tree inside you
where leaves blanket the earth –
where silken petals fly and hover
around your thoughts,
traveling like perfume
on the wind.
This is where you should pray.
A golden, threaded, light source beams
from roots –
to the tip of your violet head.
Eyes seeing for the first time
that this is who you are.
Here – now –
this is who you are.
Why have you come?
What are you waiting for?
Cristina M. R. Norcross

Beautiful, both poem and photo. Lovely blending of the two.
Thank you so much, Chila! I have been enjoying the synthesis of photography and poetry lately. Photography is fast becoming one of my new passions.
