author | poet | thread artist

I am a storyteller and a poet.

I use words and thread, pencil and needle, paper and fabric.

my work is an ongoing conversation with myself.

just for today | let’s just be

just for today let me be all the things that your tired heart needs.

sit with me, hold my hand, don’t speak.

we don’t need words everywhere, a future mapped on slate.

if we let it, tomorrow will plant its own tree for us to shelter under.

— just for today | let’s just be

Image my own.

{A Counting of Love, page 62}.

A little reminder that learning to let go of control can be a difficult thing, but tomorrow has a way of looking after itself.
