Star shaped leaves
float from the trees
slow motion accentuating-gravity
we are made of stars
and water
each moment a heartbeat closer
to happy ever after.
Kissed by tears and laughter
messy blessy life
every moment like a marathon
every heartbeat marches on
the wind whips the earth
ground squeezes closer
the seasons turn
there are no losers
only searchers
pilgrims of the new day
We are raw and new and sometimes scared
yet we make our way.
Fighting fate
accepting the answer
discovering what was always within
discovering the courage to begin
childish footsteps reach to understand
facing a new season
with outstretched hands.
