Little Free Libraries

I came across a Little Free Libray when I was driving through a neighborhood near my home. I had seen one last summer in a park in State College, PA, but didn’t realize there were any in my town. I did a little research and found out there was also one in a local county park. If you’d like to know more about these libraries click here

These Little Libraries are my doors for this week.

Reach Up, Reach Out

I reach up
Spread my arms
To embrace the sky

The sky that looks
Down on every person –
Like and unlike me

Every person receives
Equal share of the day
And the night

The sun and stars
The moon lights the
Corners of darkness

Regardless of color or shape
Weeping or joy
We’re all the same

I reach out
To embrace the world
That the sky looks
Down upon in peace

Hibernation

Leave me curled, furled
Beneath this quilt
Of many pieces
Peace increases
Breathing slows
Toes wiggle
Do not disturb
Perturb
whispered
From my lips
Fingertips hug a
Mug of warm chai
And I sigh
Leave me curled, furled
Beneath this soft thing
Until spring
