Footprints in the Windsm # 2426
She takes in the world,
provides a lap, soup from a hearth,
solace, encouragement, turning
of universe in her capacious heart.
He goes out to meet the world,
tames a patch of weeds or a nation,
teaches child to throw and not only catch,
sharpens to an edge of freedom.
This is how she writes, he writes,
gathering in, sending out
December, January; hands and feet.
