Waiting To Be Found

They surrounded me, standing tall, taller than the sky, it seemed, well I, I was 
                                                                                                                     Down
                                                                                                                     Below
They haven't seen me yet. I am here, just waiting, waiting to be found.
My paths were unelxplored, but I had seen so much: 
the animals, who pass through, and the trees, that grew UP. But I haven't grown yet,
just me, a small mountain, in my little corner of the world. 
Just waiting
                 waiting
                           waiting 
to be found.

  • Flurry

    My heart breaks

    For every snowflake

    That twirls down,

    Solitary

    Amongst a gray sky

    It looks lonely, you see

    Not as if I don’t know how that feels.

  • Fallen Tree

    A tree is downed in the forest

    It appears as a skeletal hand resting upon the snow covered floor

    Brown beneath, like ivory rotting away as it ages 

    And pure white on top, bone bleached by the sun.

  • Small Things

    I’ve started looking forward to the little things a little more 

    Than I look forward to next year

    Because it feels like next year is uncertain.

    I’m excited to eat peanut butter toast in the car before skiing,
