I searched high and low, I searched left and right, I searched north and south, I searched inside of myself and within other people, I searched all over my table and in my drawers, I searched in your hair.
Did I find what I was looking for?
No. No I did not.
But I DID find:
headphones
a lavendar pen
a rotating shoe
a gauzy spaceboot (I was wondering where it had gone)
two kittens
a secret originally kept under lifelong lock and key
a hidden stash in the wall (my neighbor put it there--weirdo)
a hand-embroidered kerchief
my guitar
fear
deception and honesty
truffle mushrooms
a dirty sock
a bowtie
Life teaches us all in different ways. LIfe is a great teacher if you're willing to do the learning.
