because of my pup
(and i already love him)
this was a hard week

because of my pup
(and i already love him)
this was a hard week

the mid-winter blues:
sometimes words stick in our teeth
unspittable pith

but i will teach them
the ‘t-h’ intricacies
of learning English
i will not give up
’cause they’ve crossed every border
to learn love’s language
we will never know
how sketchy the ride will be
until we arrive

when we feel like this
we need our pets to save us
as only they can



just what i needed:
a bluebird ski day Sunday
(for slopes are my church)



my first tortillas:
will they erase racism
that followed him here?

found some smiles here
(a girl who can draw; not hear)
i’ll leave this love here
all you need to know:
we legally have this kid
(it’s not your business)

most don’t write for me
it must be a blue moon day
and i am so blessed


cards always unite
no matter the game’s language
laughter translates all
