                                        The Giraffe

                                 I saw a giraffe

                                stand so still

                                and so orange

                                and so bright.

                                 I love the way

                                they stand.

Listen Winter

Listen to the wind
blowing in my ear
through the dark,
cold, windy night,
The snow blowing
in your face so hard
so hard
it feels like
the wind is trying
to carry you
