the breeze
on your cheeks
the strength
of the earth
beneath your feet
the gentle caress
of the clouds
in your hair
relax your brow
lift your chin
smile into the wind
take it all in
all of it
remember
the details
all of them
there will come a time
that this memory
will give you strength
J. Belle
there are times
that i just
fall in love
with the words
as they trickle down
from the sky
onto my forehead
cheeks and chest
as i passively delight
in the rippling touch
of every vowel
and consonant.
J. Belle
it is the little things
100 beans
counted slowly
ground by hand
press & drip
froth & pour
a little heart
leaf or flower
it is warm
in my hands
as I pause…
the scent wafts
eyes close
corners of my mouth
curl upward
these are the things
that give me joy
in the moment
and hope
for the future.
J. Belle
there are
some things
and some people
that just simply
give me joy
a genuine smile
it’s a lovely feeling.
J. Belle
