Last year, my dear friend Manuel and I started to write poetry together. To me he is a master with words, especially transposing feelings into beautiful lines. Always very patient with me, since English isn’t my native language and well, I can be stubborn 😉 This time Manuel suggested the topic Symbolism, forwarded me the first paragraph, I read it and then the words started to appear through my fingers as if I do this for years… His ongoing support and faith in my ability, reinforced my confidences on so many levels. Thank you for sharing your mind with me again, for our friendship…This one is for you my dear friend! XxX

Symbolism
Symbolism all around us,
Do you wish to discuss?
There is much more meaning behind a circle,
Everything has a meaning and a purpose.
Don’t lose sight of the symbolism,
Acknowledge your own metal schism.
Peace brought to us by a dove
A heart will remind you of love
The white flag waved to surrender
There is even a symbol for a defender
Is symbolism also in the danger zone?
Like wisdom of the past, kicked down the throne?
Yes, there are some connected to negativity
Related to evil, keeping us in captivity
Can we let go of those and reconquer
The healing power of symbols, and be stronger?
Let’s start re-using the anchor, thumbs up, the dove
The strong meaning behind that heart…love
Symbolism all around us,
Let’s acknowledge it’s plus!
