Safety and Home

By Mary Bone

PROMPT—I am grateful for ...

Staying Safe


We are staying safe in a world of chaos,

seeking justice on a daily basis.

Supporting each other helps us heal.

It is great to express ourselves,

with courageous strength,

amidst the stress

of our daily lives.


Trails

Winding trails in the forest

led me home.

The breadcrumbs were eaten

along the way. I could smell food

cooking in the distance.

I knew I was almost there.
