Unobstructed

Sometimes as is…

is not as we please and yet it’s telling…

of choices made

and graces turned into prizes

for next generations…

They will be braver

after all.

Their hands will make homes for ants

And hearts will choose to dance.

Voices will shout, scream, sing or converse

Just as they please…

With wisdom

And ease.

They will be braver

after all…

to choose what’s right

to wear vintage

or have their own style

unobstructed by a lack of self-knowledge

and understanding

unprovoked by grief

survival

or jealousy

supported by well thought-out arguments

of their intuitive elbows

and noise-cancellation headphones.

Ready to hear

themselves.

And choose their purpose…
