Life is a state of mind,
\nwhere it belongs is
\nin the smell of pancakes and coffee.
\nSaying thank you in the shelter
\nof a tree
\nbecause it gave you something wonderful
\nin its shade.
\nFor the handsomeness of fine houses
\nand their curtains,
\nwomen watching their children,
\nlike the sea brushing scrolls
\non the sand.<\/p>\n
Holding the emptiness of silence
\nin your mind,
\nmidnight on your shoulders,
\na hospital room,
\na grave\u2019s uncertain promises,
\nand watching dandelions
\ncreep into the garden
\nwith no place to go.
\nJust a smile on their pretty faces
\nand which side of the tracks they\u2019re on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
