Bloom where you’re planted
Grow where you land
Grounded, wild beauty
In sleep, or colour so grand
31/10/2016
Are your boundaries defined?
Do you know where you stand?
Does life move in freedom and safety,
Your abode within your own land?
Have you visits across
Within another’s own bounds?
Invited in freely,
To not intrude on their ground?
Is your stay temporary?
Not a welcome outstayed?
Returning home to your space,
Or roaming day after day?
Do your gates have a lock?
Or are they open wide?
Are visits in, by inviting,
Or trampling over your line?
Would you share of your place,
With one who wants to be asked?
Have you locks to exclude
The one who’d like to push past?
When we keep not within boundaries
For protection and rest
We overwhelm or are smothered
Not seeking mine, or your best
