Three Word Wednesday

"And the time came when the pain to remain tight in the bud became greater than the risk it took to blossom." - Anais Nin

Today, my creative juices were tweaked from Three Word Wednesday ...Brandish...Forbid...Manage....three words which best describe my experience last night with my young son.

Thunderstruck!
Lost in the roll,
Brandished by forbidden fear.


Manage to find peace
In the place of the witness.

Thunderstruck, indeed! Sometimes that is how important revelations arrive, isn't it? I alway appreciate poetry that evokes, provokes a bit of reflection and thought. This does.

It sounds as if fear turned into a giver rather than a taker of strength! Interesting poem!
