No one sees the strings the stars the pull of gravity that anchors us to places where we are
No one sees the words the poems the reaching out connecting us all the way towards home

Will You Help Us Fly?
Whose wings are these that seek relief in these shifting subtle winds of shared belief?

this poem expands beyond the reach; our minds shift to stars

You Glide
Glissando sliding along these edges
Squint your eyes to notice the places in the poem
where the liminal converge, the pockets where your words glide

we trust the day
to fall our way
together again

Will You Knit Our Thoughts Together?
We knit these strands to understand the knots of words inside these lines of angled thoughts and beautiful flight and juxtaposed designs
