New journeys, new ways
Trails leading you to a new
View of who you are

Intimacy
That kind if intamacy
That builds
When you sleep in the same space
Share the same work
Learn together
The type of intimacy that builds
When you know each other
At your most vulnerable
At your most desperate
At a time when you are
Figuring it all out
That’s what I hold on to
Dads
For those who just want
To be a dad, I see you
Your care your comfort
Prayers
Prayers without words
Feeling the grief, love-relief
God always with us
Bright Yellow Bike
Bright yellow Bike,
symbol of community,
gifts fueling joy rides
Still standing
Mixed media strength
No need for anyone to
Fall-got each other
Mantis
Preying, praying man-,
tis showing up late summer,
please don’t eat the birds
(apparently they sometimes eat small birds, like hummingbirds
Thought I lost you
I thought I lost you
But you were just hanging out
In the dirt waiting
Bandaids
I
Two band aids and an
Index card, but no stays in
ICU-vaccinated
II
Still wearing that mask
Trying to keep other bugs
Away-smart habits
III
Washing hands protects
Us and them, little ones and
Immune compromised
IV
Pandemics are real
Covid can kill, but vaccines
Steal the bugs thunder
This flower
Flower remind me
Of the unbridled joy of
Discovering you
