How is it possible that
the presence of one small
person can unblock the
waterways of the heart
And allow ships of sadness
to finish their journeys
and confused kayaks of
anxiety to reorient their
paddles,
Calm waves of joy
brush up into my chest
and jasmine winds of peace
breathe contentment into
my veins and inspire brilliance
back into my brain.
What is sacred? He said,
intention. I agree. and
attention.
