We all change with time

Wisp into life, breathe,

Stutter, choke, hold, release, gasp,

You began with loss.

~

Self transmutation,

Ignite, you cannot go back,

Exponential growth.

~

Simmer down now, drop,

Potency of thought wells up,

Fill your child’s cup.

~

Crystallizing form,

Stiff, uncooperative,

But oh, your treasures.
