the best works of art align
your past
present
& future
in joy
& sorrow
but most of all
forgiveness
all in the breath of a moment.
anything can be poetry if you're brave enough.

when birds sing
are they aware of their audience?
or do they simply sing
because they know they must?
be the bird you hear through your window
who doesn’t know you’re listening.
sing
not because someone is listening
but because you know you must.
you never know whose ears your song will reach
& you may never find out.
perhaps it is better that way.
