Cold and Warm.
Mamá covers her face, a wool embrace
chilled by winds that kiss every space.
I am always warm, instead.
Barefoot in the grass, that tickles as
I walk ahead.
The strawberries we picked,
in ruby bundles,
The bunny we met
I called him bubbles.

Unexpected.

The traveling birds that fade into the sky,
I breathe slowly as I wonder why.
Why the blooms fold suddenly,
when the roots seemed so deep.
Why this moment can’t linger?
Why is it bitter sweet?
