Rilke: “The Man Watching”

Just pondering this morning on the importance of relationship in our work with healing trauma. Rilke opens this poem with:

“I can tell by the way the trees beat after

so many dull days, on my worried window panes

that a storm is coming,

and I hear the far-off fields say things

I can’t bear without a friend,

I can’t love without a sister….”
