I worried
I worried
about myself and my body and the world and kids and old people and the climate and too much rain and too much heat and volcanoes and tsunamis and germs and shots and masks and work and money and the future and the past
and I told a friend
and we laughed
and for that moment
I didn’t worry
This poem was inspired by Mary Oliver (in fact, I copied her!) and my friend Beth ❤️ thanks salt sister!
