Toward the Hummingbirds by Alison McKenzieIt starts with a breath,
The first of many numbered events,
Condensed to moments,
Zipped memories.
Unlock destiny,
Take each step in cadence,
Dance,
Love,
Breathe and breathe and breathe.
It ends with a breath
Escaping
To float toward the humming birds.

And yes, don't forget to take a deep breath when the world has us panting fast as hummingbird wings. |
