Some say you’re lucky – Gregory Orr

Filed under: Poetry — by cerene @ 6:46 am

    Some say you’re lucky
    If nothing shatters it.

    But then you wouldn’t
    Understand poems or songs.
    You’d never know
    Beauty comes from loss.

    It’s deep inside every person:
    A tear tinier
    Than a pearl or thorn.

    It’s one of the places
    Where the beloved is born.
