a grand gesture . or simple act of kindness . soften the edges
wisdom is acquired . by living in a state of . curiosity
a tree cannot know . the sensation of travel . and doesn’t need to
perhaps they got tired . waiting for the pond to freeze . a broken promise
some ask the questions . the rest of us didn’t know . needed answering
when a fog descends . the path only remains clear . if we keep moving
there isn’t much need . for a see-through umbrella . on a sunny day
what someone else wants . for themselves, shouldn’t translate . into what we want
even sitting still . the idea of motion . is everywhere
wishing it to be . runs into reality . as the ice rink melts
