Imagination

A little imagination can go a long way; We find it in stories and use it in play. A leap in the air and with wings we do fly; We soar over treetops and swoop through the sky. A dive underwater sprouts fins on our backs; We swim past the mermaids; avoid shark attacks. AContinue reading “Imagination”

Me In The Tree

My feet are planted firmly on the ground, As my toes drive deep into the damp earth; A sturdy foundation for my erect torso. Standing tall, my arms spread wide; My fingers stretch toward the sky sprouting leaves. My eyes stare as two woodpecker holes. I wait and I watch. For hundreds of years, IContinue reading “Me In The Tree”

Light After Dark

Oh, just look at his hands; Calmly contemplative or flailing in agitation; Revealing the emotion ofContinue reading “In His Head”

To Be One

I see a beautiful landscape, But to see it is not enough. I want to burst into a billion particles, And scatter myself amongst the scenery. I love a person with all my heart, But to love them is not enough. I want to become fluid, And seep into their very pores. I hear aContinue reading “To Be One”

There Are The Trees

There are the trees. Oh, how they bring me peace; their arms wide open, spreading their tranquility. There are the trees. Confident in their uniqueness, displaying their beauty, even after their leaves have fallen. There are the trees. Emitting the breath of life, I breathe deep into my lungs. Ah, the serenity. There are theContinue reading “There Are The Trees”
