This is my first time posting small stone poems for the January Challenge, so here they are: *pours out my pocket full of small stones into your hands*
1.1.11
large bubbles rising
in the cats’ water bowl
the last one lingers and snaps
like yesterday

These are my hands.
On my pinky,
A red dot where skin heals.
With these hands,
I remember my tiny miracles.
These are my hands.
On my pinky,
A red dot where skin heals.
With these hands,
I remember my tiny miracles.
1.3.11
over a cup of tea and coffee
my mom and i speak of beginnings
how fear curled up in the womb
and the way it slowly leaves
These stones soshiny and truefill my bowl withsilent beauty.
