Life advice
Author: N
Writer of all things, some of which are pretty good.
Wave
A pop of colour—
lilies along the sidewalk,
waving to strangers.
Unknown
Longing for a home

embrace the unknown.
Gently
A gentle caress;
cosy cat’s brush of a tail—
ocean laps her rocks.
Public treasure
Hiding in plain sight
treasures we already own,
yet forget: mountains.
