Origins
I come from preschool in the basement of a church that now exists only in fond memories. From days spent in the snow that always melted into nights of gooey marshmallow hot chocolate, tangled in blankets in front of gas fireplaces. From bedroom doors left open after being tucked in tight to fall asleep in the comfort of the light that trickled down the hall from the living room. From running jumps into piles of leaves raked at least a mile high on orange and red and yellow days. From shakily taking the training wheels off my bike on a dead-end street that seemed only to go downhill.

Stray and Cold
A tabby cat walks the bank of a frozen stream, her kittens swinging in her belly. The sky is bright and still, holding its breath until the return of spring. The trees watch her pad through the snow, their pointed peaks whispering to each other in the silent winter air.
