Sleepy
a seat
in the sunlight
with a cool
pacific breeze
and the day
becomes
a moment
of stillness
within movement
as I linger
to smell
the briny air
and imagine
sleeping
peacefully and
undisturbed

Gideon’s Challenge
Guardian
Protected
and secure
you watch over me
and let me grow
you give me strength
in the stillness
that lets me find
my own path
and yet always there
to brush me off
and heal my wounds
should I trip
and fall.
