Star Fish


Sometimes I don't have a whole lot to say.

Silent as a starfish.
Yet reaching out, linking arms, seeking connection.

Peacefully aware that, in this deep sea of quietness,
I am still a part of a larger constellation.

  2. Oh my gosh! I've never seen starfish like that before. I actaully saw my first live starfish for the first time last October when I was in Vancouver for the first time! (I don't get out much - ha ha!) It was in a seagull's mouth. I suspect it didn't last long. :( Great picture!

  4. How is it that even when you don't have much to say, you still write the most beautiful prose? More a poem than a post. You, my friend, have so many gifts. And, I am very, very grateful that you share them here. You touch my heart each time I visit.

  7. Sometimes, like the starfish, we don't have to say anything in order to communicate much.

  10. What Relyn up above said, each and every word. You have a gift and I love it when I have a chance to come visit.

    I threw a starfish back into the ocean once and thought, "I made a difference to that one."

    You make a difference with each post.

  15. Yes you are! I know EXACTLY how you feel - have been very quiet this week. Perhaps we are getting ready to hibernate!

    P.S. What an amazing picture!

  16. I know that quiet, connection-seeking place too, but I rarely achieve it and I certainly never express it so beautifully.

  17. they look so magical!

    I saw my first starfish on the coast maybe a year ago. It was purple and sparkly and (looked) squishable and beautiful. These ones look even more alive - like they are just loving on each other. :)

  19. Some people say way too much without ever having anything to say, others say much too little when you wish they would say more, and then there are others that say just enough, about all the right things, even when they dont have alot to say! :)

    (you are the last one in case you were wondering!)

  24. Oh I can so relate to having few words but much to share. I love how they all look like a pack of puppies laying all over each other. So connected without even trying. :)
