I consider myself SMART enough
But, the SLOPE of a graph can be tough
I try and SHINE a light,
Keep a reference book in sight
Yet no SENSE can I make
The answer I will just have to fake!

Georg’ann

I didn’t TEACH her to love
the textures of tree bark,
only set her on the path.

She knew by instinct
how to SEIZE the earth
through her feet and fingers.

We SEGUE from concrete
and cluttered containment,
SENSE the expanse in tiny details.
