Maybe it's stories like that that we hear when we put sea shells to our ears...? Interesting mood poem. I love the google pled of grains plus one.

A beautifully told tale. Is she a mermaid? it makes one wonder. particularly like her mind spirals into the bone.... Great piece 10 ++

Which is also said of paths, life and rebirth experiences. The search is eventful and exciting...what will we see there? This soul sounds weary, and has surrendered to her journey. A lovely write that gave a raft of philosophical thoughts.
