A Way Around by Naomi Shihab Nye
I had a really wonderful conversation with a friend tonight and I wanted to post this poem because it fits with some of the things we discussed.
A Way Around
By Naomi Shihab Nye
Argument
is a room I won’t enter.
Some of us
would circle a whole house
not to enter it.
If you want to talk like that,
try a tree.
A tree is patient.
Don’t try me.
