See it all around
Such perfection must be God’s work
Gently pressed together our hills fit into valleys
As if we were designed to love each other
I can almost believe them

Hand-some
A hand is strutting down the hall,The fingers walking proud and tall.A mighty bold and handsome hand,With knuckle wrinkles oh so grand.I'm sure some kid is missing thatWhen he reaches up to fix his hat,With just a stub to tip the brim,No digits top his rounded limb. But hands like this don't need an arm,Don't need a kid,With all that charm.The nicest hand you'll ever see,It ought to be out…

Everyday I think about Gaza
When I go to bed, warm and comfortable. I think about the freezing people in tents who barely have scraps to keep them alive
When I take a shower, unafraid of the water stopping or going cold. I think of the people in gaza who havent showered for months and barely have clean drinking water.
When I watch my brother play with his race cars and my sister with her dolls, I think about the children, who despite all their hardships still find ways to smile and play
When we sit down to eat dinner, never having to fear food on the table the next day. I think about the starving mothers who can't feed her children and the older siblings walking miles to feed his siblings. I think about the people who died of starvation. I think about the people of gaza
When I go to my school where my friends chat and my teachers teach, I think about the universities demolished and the aspiring students who are no more
When my parents leave for a few hours and I take care of my siblings, I know they'll be back in a while to take over. But what about the teenagers turned parents? What about the orphans caring for toddlers? What about the children in gaza
Every day I think about the hopeful people of Palestine. The brave people of Palestine. The relentless people of Palestine. The stubborn and beautiful people of Palestine.
When I look at my house, the buildings, the sky, the water, my family, the lights, the sun, the internet, the food, my school, my friends, the children, the parks, the birds, the cats, the toy stores, the supermarkets, the bustling crowds, the heavy traffic
my world so full of life...
I think about Gaza

you listen and you know you could / live a better life than you do, / be softer, kinder. and maybe / this year you will be able to do it. (ig @jannekemakes)

I wanted to tell you that wherever I am, whatever happens, I’ll always think of you, and the time we spent together, as my happiest time. I’d do it all over again, if I had the choice. No regrets.
Cynthia Hand, Boundless

truth is,
i think about our hands a lot:
yours in mine,
my cold palm pressing
against your warm hand,
our slender fingers intwined
with each other
think about the things
that we can accomplish together
hands were made for
building and creating,
and i cannot wait to see what
my hands can create with yours
— unknown
