Poetry
Short verses, one idea each. Take one with your morning coffee, or sit with the whole collection.
Morning does not ask whether you deserve it.
It has been struck twice and is still in the business of leaves.
Small ceremonies keep a person upright.
The body builds something stronger where it broke.
Two words, and both of them a whole biography.
You do not have to swim tonight. Only float.
The dog has no theory of recovery. The dog has a lead.
It gets around the rock by agreeing to change shape.
