Care provided
Woven by one’s hands
Accepted by my heart
Priceless

I’m off to a Healing Seminar in December and my homework has those types of energy bursts. Now I have to call you the Elfje Elan – as opposed to the Haiku Hottie! 🙂

These 11 words say so much, so eloquently yet simply, Becca. I love the lines ‘care provided, woven by one’s hands’ ~ they remind me of the work my husband does with elderly and disabled clients, how much they appreciate his work and how much wisdom they share with him in return. As you say, ‘Priceless’. 🙂

Thank you for sharing this interesting poem … and awesome photo.
