winter's child
warm hands fingerprinting crisp glass.
oscillating breaths -
between clear and opaque.
a calming condensation.
an understanding of balance.
no matter the cold - your radiance endures, sweet child.

an object at rest
your atoms collide
even as you sit - you are:
a mass potential
you are more than a battery or a snowball or fodder for a rube goldberg machine - your energy is intentional.

The Almost Philosophical Seed Proverb
be like the seed:
fall to the ground…
and soil yourself.
this is the pathway to growth.

cat vs. toddler (a haiku)
tiny hands grip tail
eyes bulging…”MEOW!” “MEOW!”
cat prays for swift death
me-ow!

confidence: the continuum.
be.
continue to be.
always be.
because: you are.

breath (a love poem)
of a million strands of kite string - forming tornadoes through a heartbeat:
you release like a whisper - thin; but intentional.
you are a call to listen.
you are a prayer to red blood cells;
a promise of sounder sleep.
a comfortable thunder.
so send up your kites (no matter the weather).
erupt.
and rest among the whispers.
be deep.

trolls on poetry websites
you spend your days among the graffiti:
under your bridge - shouting your expletives at an echo.
i'll spend my days walking right above you:
singing through a megaphone.
p.s. thanks for the motivation.
