Can time find a way, I wonder.

 

Mountains and valleys heard the plan
Tired years of pouring rain
Honest trees echoed gale songs
Can heard songs fall asunder?

Lazy moments space out and last
Mad in my cagey mind
Lost nostalgic in a maze
Can time find a way, I wonder.

- By Arth S.

Group Poem

 

The Listener's Book Club has begun reading The Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin. The following poem is found in the beginning of the book:

Only in silence the word,

only in dark the light,

only in dying life:

bright the hawk's flight

on the empty sky.

-The Creation of Ea

The group created this poem in response:

Only in free fall

Only in fear, love

Only in Zoom, we commune

only in despair triumph

Only in sadness, hope

Only in love, the pain

Only in conflict the love

only in heat the cool breeze

Only in despair is hope.

Only in anger calm

Only in loss is recovery

Only in struggle the winning.

Only in chaos is order

Only in tragedy hope.

Only in craziness the wise

Only in trying times, love conquers all.

Only in moving stillness

only the sea awaits the seeable

-The Creation of the Members of Speaking is Overrated
