I rip life into its letters,
punctuation, and white noise
to spell out ransom poems
that demand your joy
at my groans.

It's a good time to share $5, $10, or $20. Food banks can buy food much cheaper than we can. A $5 donations goes further than you think when you give it to the food bank.

Your love matters. Your love is needed.

If this is hard for you to read, try being 12 or 13 and living it. This is just one little girl's story out of...how many? I challenge you to read every word of this snippet of her complaint.

If you can stomach it, read the full complaint for yourself:

The West Woods, Russell Twp.

This is one of my favorite walks. Such a pretty park! We stopped at the Nature Center with its amazing bird feeder space, learning room with live critters, and rooms with fabulous art displays. Happy Sunday!

I take all my sadness to the trees and hide it in the stones and leaves. Where do you unload your heavy heart?
