Something precious

There was something precious
about the way you left your window open
that day it rained and the wind was howling
Your gauzy curtain, a dancing muse, flying
wispy poetry for all eyes to see
There’s something precious shared
When you leave your heart achingly wide
to share without withholding
loving without a single thought
For that utterly unprotected warm place
There’s something precious that happens
When you drop those boundaries
between self and others and objects
And gift all earth with the abundance
Of boundlessness

There's something precious about being so open to someone else and to all the world has to offer you. That's beautiful and is something that a lot of people need to read. It reminds you that there is more to the world than just protecting yourself from experiencing it. Well, that's only if I interpretted it right. :)
Thank you, Rina, for your reflection
much love
That photo is gorgeous.

…hearts achingly wide…sharing without withholding loving. The wide-open loving compassionate heart.
