*Renewed*

POEM

– The photo was taken a couple years ago (yes, I didn’t go out today). It is one of my favorites.  I love the simplicity of the bikes against the cobblestone patio.  Though not new, the bikes were cared for, as members of a family. People milling around didn’t even glance at them, yet they were waiting for their owners–quietly, patiently.

. . . . . .

Renewed

I am new
Confident,
A friend,
Family.

 

I am discarded,
Lost,
Weary,
Dying.

 

Tears fall
Rusty,
Dirty,
Hopeless.

 

Eager hands,
Lifting,
Reshaping,
Remolding.

 

I am reborn.
