Oak Tree

the grand oak tree
reaches for the sky
with branches sprouting outward

moss wraps around it
patchy in some places
but creating a soft cloak

it stand in a forest
but easily picked out
as the greatest of them all

  • I LOVE YOU

    In all your sadness and glory, wins and losses

    Let me be there

    Own the fact I will be here forever

    Very much attached to your side

    Even when you wish me gone

    Your light will always guide my ship

  • Dance of the Polar Bear

         Late at night, my igloo is cozy and warm, unlike the Artic outside. Grandmum tucks me into bed, but doesn't leave just yet. She takes a seat on the edge of my bed, and prepares her story telling voice.
