Dakota

Thank you human limitations and earthly delights
For teaching me to grow
Slowly
For reminding me that nothing is as instantaneous as
Our timelines make them out to be
For showing me all the many ways in which
I am moving forward
One
Step
At
Time
Towards the new beginnings
That await by the swing set
Lingering while music plays
Over cardboard cutout boomboxes
That wait patiently around the corner
Just as my future awaits patiently for me

Thank you human limitations and earthly delights
For embracing me with sunlight
Glucose glittering my eyelids as dewdrops dance
Because deep down
I am only a plant too
Except I am one that learned to
Breathe and write and laugh and be bright
I am a complex cosmos, a galaxy within the galaxy
A perplexing anthropomorphic mountain
I am nature
I am god
I am delicious human limitations and earthly delights
