Become inclined to watch the way of rain Imitate the habit of twilight Draw alongside the silence of stone Be excessively gentle with yourself. #poem John O'Donohue #art Mushtaque Silat23 Oct 2026 06:19 +0000at://did:plc:lb3xmgou4ctffc75dusrfsy7/app.bsky.feed.post/3myjjv4ye6k2mhttps://bsky.app/profile/leighgoodwin.bsky.social/post/3myjjjcbhik2mTo the Desert You taught me how to live without the rain. You blow a breeze and brand Your breath into my mouth. I was born for you. I wake to you at dawn. Break me, I am bread. I will be the water for your thirst. ☀️ #poem excerpt: Benjamin Alire Sáenz #art D.A.ST.
