Poetry For Everyday People

Words I Live By

The wind blew hard,
trees cried leaves,
I cracked the window,
turned on my reading lamp,

I've smelled more air:
in words, seen more butterflies,
found more friends, the best
mental health care, free,
dancing between two lines,

I found a place where
boiled eggs became
a reminder of comfort,
where loneliness:
finally had an answer,

where I can always
come back,

no matter
where I just been.
