Winter Birds

Look at them. Some are so small, they seem only feathers and a heartbeat.

And though we’re made differently, we’re made of the same things, and share the same breath.

To me, this isn’t just poetry, religion, or science. It’s miraculous, inspiring, intimate.

Thank goodness I don’t need to prove its significance, or tell you what it means.

You already know we’re here to love each other, ourselves, and all things.
