our life source. 
breathe in, then out
trees help us live our everyday.
they create shade on hot days and create beauty and air. 
they provide fuel to warm us our chilled bodies on the cold days.

I catch a snowflake on my tongue. 
It tastes sweet but sour. 
the snowflake slowly melts, numbing my tongue.
I run around catching more snowflakes.
Then Wham! I get hit with snow.

Dear Sophie, 
May you always have a role model who shows you where to start.
And may you always have a place that you can call home.
May you always have friends who love you for who you are as a person.

I am from lacrosse sidelines and fields, 
from alpine skis and Nike clothing.
I am from the City of Bridges
the chill, hippy city with lush green forests.
