bones so many
bumps and bruises
so many twists
and strains across
the body a history
of striving forward
motion interrupted
how far one travels
measured by intention
what one dares
each endeavour
a promise
the gift of work
the discipline
of desire wrapping
hands around you
each tool
full of potential
each task
a seed each
completion a gift
i keep getting
older i still feel
young it is both
true and not true
perception thin
like
onion skin
