path of a tigress
the rocky impossible
tooth marked with success
~~~~~~~~~~
flowers are medics
scented nurses of the soul
injecting color
~~~~~~~~~~
wonder of a child
is innocence’s beauty
of unfiltered joy
~~~~~~~~~~
my gate of feathers
speaks peace to those who enter
your dreams are safe here
~~~~~~~~~~
the other side calls
hope’s greener grass fantasy
winter won’t follow
~~~~~~~~~~
a rose speaks courage
every test has its thorns
scars are not weakness
~~~~~~~~~~
hoofed wings carry me
across an earth sky of dust
heaven untethered
~~~~~~~~~~
