All of this is for meant for you
Patty Cakes, wild flowers in your hair,, ginger colored dancing, fingers always reaching, eyes searching, hearts beating, fresh clean sheets, clear watery eyes, seaching, spots for sobbing, feet that cant stop running… The sun as it rises and day unplanned filled with little surprises, train rides, high fives, raindrops, gum drops, bus stops, PlaneContinue reading “All of this is for meant for you”
A Long Time Coming
Winter gives way to warm, makes room for more and it is this delicate time of renewal I reach farthest in my mind, my hand outstretched hoping to discover two paper planes still in flight.
