Five Minute Breakfast Poems {One}
I’m searching for a song
Listening closely to find it
I heard it while I was by myself
The lyrics sank into me while
In a king sized bed
I heard it when I was myself
Searching for a song
When you don’t know the name is hard
I heard it when I craved to find myself
I will find the song
I will listen closely to it again
I heard it to see myself better
The lyrics are lost in my brain
Though the lyrics are emblazoned upon my heart
I heard it as I talked to myself
When I finally find the song
I will release the words from my lips
I heard that it will make me more—myself–-whole
I’m searching for a song
With power to touch a corner of your soul
I heard it and, at the very least, it has helped to heal
Come and play along!
Weekly Winners {One Day in Seattle}
One day, in Seattle, four OG friends met up. There were squeals and hugs and ohmygoshyoulooksopretties! There was a Volvo with an attacking seat-belt—the kind that is seemingly like the tree that grabbed the brother in Poltergeist. There was a drive, around the city, to a famous restaurant that makes killer burgers. There was a lot of son-of-a-bitching when it was realized that the restaurant that we drove all around the city for was not there anymore, because they had totally succeeded and upgraded from the hole-in-the-wall to a very spacious and cool location. There was belly-aching laughter. There was milkshakes and beer. There was killer burgers and fries. There were lava lamps. There were lunchboxes. There were cute waiters boys. There was artwork and landmarks. There was a beautiful sunset in a very cool city. And, most of all there was friendship and old-love!
