Grape hyacinths grow in innocent clusters
Spring harbingers
of warming soil and sun
Epilepsy sits quietly, innocently ~ clustering and seizing to slam and fall suddenly with little warning. in lawns and fields
Epilepsy crashes and jerks
unexpectedly through families
Fragrant auras of a grape hyacinths are delicate and sweet.
An aura for a seizure blossoms
into fear and anxiety.
Grape hyacinths ~ lovely and gentle.
Those with epilepsy each
have their own goodness.
“I smiled back and I thought how incredible that was,
that they would find the time to smile. There was goodness
in the world still, even if you couldn’t always see it.”
~ Jenny Valentine, Broken Soup
