Daily Prompt: Survival
Is it bottled water
and flats of canned beans,
solar blankets and chargers,
and wind-up radios
that makes survival
a doable thing?
Or is it poems and art,
deep rest,
a walk in the trees,
a hand in the dirt,
a long eye-gaze,
a light touch on the arm,
a word of praise?
Bread matters,
but is it possible…
might love matter more?

For the month of May, I will be posting something daily, namely some kind of respond to The Daily Post’s daily prompt or some other prompt, unless a poem or post visits me of its own accord, unbidden and welcomed.
I’m pretty sure your poem will help me make it through the struggles of today. For real.
Aw, man…I hope so. For real.
Yes!!! As the writer-sister of an extreme prepper, I stand with you.
LOL! Wow! I mean, I get the impulse, but…
Might love matter more? Important to ask, excellent reminder of something we take for granted.
I wonder (bad grammar aside)
Might love matter most?
Likely, m’dear. Most likely.
Yes! This!
And my heart squeezed a little bit. Lovely!
Thanks!
