Sesheta's 21 Days of Poetry Challenge II

Learn

"All knowledge is worth having." Anafield Delaunay, among other characters, from Kushiel's Legacy series by Jacqueline Carey

Tears slide down my cheeks
Catch snowflakes on my tongue
The pedal on the right makes it go
Heels wobble with imprecise balance
Every day I learn

Wind ruffles my hair
Explain new concepts to be understood
Climb to the top of the windmill
Listen to the beating heart
Learn to grow and change

Rain soaks my clothing
Read another book
Swing as high as it will go
Wade the creek below the bridge
Learn to see and do

Roast in the desert sun
Cook s'mores by the campfire
Bring life into the world
Love others beyond yourself
Learn every day
