Youth

Ashlee M Dec 2019

Youth

Time lags when you're young
To allow wonder to win,
To let on a chance for palpable grace
In the exhale of existence.

A sentiment to my children, and remembering what it was like to wonder and imagine as a child myself.

Worry

Ashlee M Dec 2019

Worry

Struggles in my mind
Rising sun now understands
Thunder in whispers.

A sentiment to anxiety and worry. From a constant overthinker.

Life

Ashlee M Dec 2019

Life

Endless wood
A hunted, perfect hare runs
Enjoying the day.

A sentiment on how purely you can live, yet you cannot escape life who is the hunter.

Mantra

Almost defeated by this day.
But this was not my worst day.
And there will be worse.
Suddenly it’s not so bad.

When we
Meet we
Already know
Each other.
