I Like This

[perzephone]

I went looking for a poem... got this instead. It's okay, though, because I like it anyway.

Those who give you a serpent when you
ask for a fish, may have nothing but
serpents to give. It is then generosity
on their part.

-excerpt from Sand and Foam, by Kahlil Gibran

I got it from here:

Hmm..a gift of transformation or a gift of fertility or abundance..I would think a serpent would be much better gift overall. As I transform, the more abundant my spirit becomes..
