Bowl

I see the church,
the uneven blue gravel,
thick green weed,
the bubbles rising,
the diver and the treasure chest,
the two friends down below
rising to eat.

Blackbird

Its song lifted my soul,
The grass beneath my toes made me happy,
The gate swung gently in the breeze
As the blackbird landed on the grass, still singing.

I will open the door

there could be a famous person,
there could be a zoo
I will open the door
because there's nothing to be afraid of.
