Photo by jkairvar on FlickrI love my dear siblings
My partners in hunger
We feed off of hugs
And float around like nothing
Touching the surroundings
With a light that bleeps red
Every time zero becomes one
And void becomes form
Because I can’t be grasped
But I find myself where others find me
My partners in hunger
We feed off of hugs
And float around like nothing
Touching the surroundings
With a light that bleeps red
Every time zero becomes one
And void becomes form
Because I can’t be grasped
But I find myself where others find me

Living on distant hugs.
your poem makes me long for a more hugging relationship with my own sisters.....
How I want to hug my 3 brothers now! As we are all away from each other now, I miss them so.
Thanks for this lovely post..
Powerful!
hugs is what makes us all warm and fuzzy:), nice poem:)
Hi Gilson! Such beautiful sensitivity and tender images. I just spent some time with my siblings and your poem completely resonates with me. I got tears in my eyes when I read the lines "every time zero becomes one/ and void becomes form" -- and "But I find myself where others find me". I LOVE this!! My brother and sister mean the world to me -- together we hold the memories, history, sorrow, joy, hopes and dreams of our ancestors. I don't know what I would do without them. Thank you for such a beautiful poem!

Hi clare! It’s great to know you had a nice time with your siblings! I’ve learned to cultivate a great admiration for my family as well and recognize the role they play in my life. It’s very gratifying to read your comment and I wish to you and your family the best!
"But I find myself where others find me" - so beautiful!
This poem resonates in my life as well. I really miss my brothers and sisters who are a thousand miles away from me across the Pacific. Thank you for sharing this!
My sister lives far away, and I do treasure our times together (and our hugs). Lovely poem!
Hi odessa! Thanks a lot. I can imagine how it must be hard for you. Some times I wonder about modern technology, so many people criticize it, but I imagine that it can very useful in a situation like yours.
Hi fledgling poet! It’s great to know that, I cherish my sister too. Thanks for sharing!
