Summertime gives A chance to grow Under the sun, Travel, to new places And have some fun.

The flesh withers as we age But our inner spirit Remains the same. And when the body dies The spirit breaks free

One year since I traveled to paradise. One year since I laughed and danced with friends. One year since I watched

Oh hummingbird Where are you now? Have you taken My courage with you? Oh hummingbird

Not sure what to write while the world is on the brink of another war. While others face

The dance of fear, Of not being enough, Stops and starts. The unknown, an Uncharted sea,
