“The Seagull” | Anthony Satori
[a poem]
Who knows?
Perhaps the seagull
was once a fish
who dreamed of the sky
so earnestly
that Nature eventually decided
to give her wings.

“This Is Not An Apple” | Anthony Satori
It is always worth the effort to strive to understand the heart and mind of someone that you love. Approach each other with compassion and empathy. Give the process time and space.

Merge with the Divine
“Contemplation” | Anthony Satori
