Poems by

SPEAK LIFE I whisper to the winds that soothe me, “Thank you for your grace.” They smile as they pass through my spirit, sweeping up my cloth. The sun shows me his unprecedented love. I bow in awe, respecting its lovely power. The birds land near me and tweet at my feet. I sing with them. I can feel the smile we all share in our hearts. The stubborn Earth grounds me with perfect foundation. I elect to plant a flower as a token of my appreciation. How lovely the world is this day! I have a taste for the muskrat and the jackrabbit. Creator, forgive me my brutishness and bless the meal which I am about to receive. KWAAH! I am now a majestic eagle. I love you, muskrat and rabbit. But now, I must eat you!
