Our Eyes
with our eyes almost fully grown at birth
there is amazement
at the growth truly possible
the things we see
through wide eyes open
through wide eyes shut
through questioning eyes
when we look to find
we see
when we do not look
we still see
while vision
may be impaired
we continue to see
and, I believe
our eyes
allow us to grow
until the day
we close them forever
The Ice Must Melt
Bitterness encased
Her lithe appendages
Still her place
Among the rest
Prevailed
Her pain
Found respite
Before the thaw
Took over
Completely
A new
Light was cast
Tears were shed
As her heart beat
Strong
