Dragonfly

You found love in the twists and turns

and entanglement of the trees

I found freedom in the flutter

of your sparkling wings

Reflecting blue like hummingbirds 

in the blink of an eye

This feels good to say

It all used to roll off the tongue a lot easier

when the city moved faster than now

Now, time feels at ease,

and that blue looks so vibrant and true

Where will you fly to, my new friend?

Will you search for more love to whisper in your ear?

There was a moment you inched closer to me

that I thought we might touch

Your blue, may be scented

You might be ecstasy sent from

the presence of every other color

that I am capable of seeing

This Might Not Mean a Thing

Ripples in rain puddles erupting gratitude.

Mundane visions and every day 

kaleidoscopes are unicorns.

Some people are hiding. 

Some people are glowing with kindness,

and those are the people I wish I could hug.

~Tina Meeks

Since Last Time

Whether we speak nothing of this ever

or talk about how ridiculous we are,

it will have all been worth the experience

because we cause natural disasters

no matter where we go
