Keep going!
When I was thirteen or fourteen and didn’t know much about life, I thought people lived forever. Then I was young and never tired, always talked and always wondered, why good people died.

Keep the day after snowstorms!
When your edges are sharpened, with joy or sorrow, with no time for doubt, words flow and your write, knowing you are orphans of today, of falling snow, of things deep and unspoken, of an endless journey for tomorrow, and even if darkness spreads around you, and even if you wait for the cold moon’s…

Snow as it falls, scatters and gains possession of the earth, and trees hang up their branches, as an American robin appears, suddenly hungry, the air drips of fallen snow, like ant filing out a wood, only this isn’t wood, and though we are not American robins, they know those who do not befriend snow…

Keep words for every day things you love in 2025!
Everyday, I am surrounded by ideas beautiful, one of which is you, words to keep, firing up my life as nothing else could. Of course there are things to do, places to go, children to raise, and people to love, but still the thought of keeping words, one at a time, is like the red…

Keep your name and the peace it brings!
And the dreams of my father, those nurtured in a place where sands are red, spoke to me again, from the depths of our soul, through storms raging, through torrents pouring, saying even anger will never reach your soul, even if hot pebbles fall on your bare skin, even if the heavens force the skies…
