A Mom's Love
Julie sat on the park bench, watching her daughter laughing while swinging high on the swing. A tall skinny latee warmed her cold hands, its smell of strong, freshly ground beans helped her to feel more awake. Her daughter, Anabelle, called out to her. She was excited to show off her new skill of pumping her legs, a joyous smile radiated from her rosy cheeks. Julie shouted words of praise and gingerly sipped her coffee, although she didn't even taste it. An angry face appeared in front of her and she was transported to the time and place when the accident happened.

The Pear Tree
There it was in all its simplistic beauty, standing alone in a field, surrounded by trees, a pear tree. The ancient tree was covered in moss and ants marched up and down its trunk. It provided a sweet-smelling reprieve from the sun’s smoldering heat and supported my tired, aching back against its hard, strong trunk. Here, I could allow my anxiety and fear to evaporate into the clouds. This place became the only place that my toddler could toddle and my teen could explore and I could rest.
