Barefoot Rondelet Poem by Melissa Studdard

Barefoot Rondelet

Rating: 5.0


—inspired by the Remedios Varo painting To Be Reborn


To be reborn,
step barefoot from this world, praying
to be reborn
wild-eyed, seared by life, and graying
already with wisdom, forewarned:
it's a sad, sweet, brief delaying,
to be reborn.
