Beautiful Thangs




 



instead
of being pulled
down
by
the weight of pollution
jobs
bills
people-
close the door.
turn off the lights
close the curtains
don’t look out the window

remember
b4
when we were startled
away
from what made our hearts break
?

a kiss from u
is a thousand tiny suns going off
on each strand of hair
each limb
each finger-
tip
a-
gain;
what made us new

make us new again
lets talk about think about
beautiful things
beautiful thoughts
u
thoughts me
us & we
lets talk about think about
what i find in u
and u
in me.

close the door
&
Talk about
Think about

Those tiny suns

About Me

My photo
First of all, I love GOD. Proud Christian here! I love the smell of baked goods, seeing dads with their sons at the barbershop, couples walking down the street holding hands, I love my friends and their kids and their dogs and cats and my cats. I love poetry, jazz, old school R&B, Hip hop, Gospel, House, architecture, writing, and baking. I love compliments about my baking, I love Paris, Scarborough Ontario, Latino culture, nappy hair, and the sound of kids laughing. The first thing I do every morning after I crawl out of bed is get on my knees to thank God for letting me see another day. I invite you to join me on this journey on this thing called Life, where you might laugh, cry, and perhaps be enlightened along the way! I might be enlightened as well, based on your responses to my posts. For collaborations: daij62@gmail.com
