Flexability

I'm not asking you to give like a willow
a delicate waif chasing the wind.
But even California steel knows
how to bend before the brittle and break.
 

Mountains

There is nothing so great about feeling so small
As knowing I fit so perfectly between your arms.

Tending the Garden

The Spanish moss drapes like green lace from the live oaks.
Daffodils kiss dandelions and crabgrass embraces the dogwood. Burdock grows alongside the succulents and patches of oxalis begin to outpace the buttercups.
Drop your tools to rust in a pile of poison ivy and paperwhites as you sit cross-legged in open wonder at this single moment.
