From David Whyte poetry c.d.

“Poetry is the freedom to be in the experience and discover things you didn’t know you knew.

Poetry is the creative courageous act of articulating reality wherever you are. Releases you from prison. Gives inner sense of spaciousness.

We need a relationship with the silence and a relationship with the unknown.

Have faith in the longings you feel. There’s nothing wrong with the longings – they will mature and lead us into the place we are attempting to make for ourselves.”
