the word of the year
was create
and what did I create?
a mess, it seems
but maybe not
walls torn down
mind and heart
spoken as truthfully
as I knew how
art in suitcases
words online
new friends made
and lost
old friends
holding strong
the taste
of bourbon
and cider
and cream cheese frosting
the smell of
leather shoes
and the warmth
of good wool socks
the aha moment
when the person
in front of me
stands up
and for the first time
in a long time
their feet don’t hurt
the moon
and the tide
and the pull
of them both
river walks
and beach days
and hiking
up and down
this hill
and one more
lesson learned
but i think
i’ve learned it
this time
this time
i think i’m ready
to let the
right things in
