Poem: November 18, 2019

Islands

How nice it is to find spaces
to connect. Great, friendly
tables and art on the walls
and comfortable chairs, sturdy
enough for learning forward
and leaning back, places where
we smile and talk about what
matters- our families, our work,
the songs and books and jokes
we carry with us. How nice it is
to find safe and serviceable
spaces where we close the door
and step away from pain.
