Window Flowers In A Watered Jar
Beautiful and ready to pot in soil
Window Flowers In A Watered Jar
Three little rebels in borrowed jars,
not a root in soil, not a fence or bars
just glass and water, clean and still
yet each one grows with stubborn will
The pink one’s loud, it hums at dawn
the orange sleeps with curtains drawn
the violet watches clouds go by
and whispers secrets to the sky
No earth to claim, no bed to own
they bloom as if the world had grown
just to see them stretch and sway
soft-footed queens of a window sill day.

Winter Up High
Upon the North, where winter holds its sway, The frigid nights descend with solemn grace, A silent, diamond dust along the way, And moonbeams carve the shadows of the place. The wind, a ghost that whispers through the pines, Doth chill the very breath that leaves the lip, The ground is bound by frosted, silver lines, And stars, like scattered jewels, their vigil keep. The long dark hours demand a sheltered rest, Where firelight dances on the hearth's warm stones, And weary souls are welcomed to the nest, To chase the biting cold from blood and bones. Yet in this chill, a stark, pure beauty lies, Reflected in the vast and endless skies.

Rachel Reviews: The Spiral Archive by Pieter Hendrik
It's difficult for me to know where to start with a review of this book as it was, for me, an entirely unique experience and one that I'll probably never have again. I don't want that to be interpreted as unenjoyable but it has left me scratching my head a little and ruminating on its content, its themes and its characters.
