A reflective moment
ALL YOUR EGGS
When from before time
Your eggs are all in one basket
And then you find
The basket is falling apart.
Make sure you and yours
Are given permission
(Or if not – do it early)
To unravel the basket.
Leave the eggs in a safe place.
Some will not return.
You won’t want them any more.
Build baskets that you’re happy with
But put a reminder in your phone
To take your basket to another basket maker
Every now and again.
Then maybe
Burn a few baskets (not at the recycling plant).
Let other basket holders be in their own weaving world.
Suggest a group gathering for all kinds of baskets
But don’t waste too much time with the
Steel or concrete basket holders.
In fact leave them to their own basket world.
Change is impossible.
Your basket life
Could make you a basket case
But if you build a good one
That your ever evolving eggs are in
You might not need to reject it.

Sticks from a pruning of the Lavendar Lights bush that sit in my front yard slowly degenerating. I built this about 2 weeks ago.
