“It Touches You.”

Lay the ay of
layers.
Tie the eye of
time.
Reach the it that
touches you.
Pass the wry of
rhyme.

Hold the sand that
lingers
so sticky to your
palm
and hear the sea
it symbols —
those of salt and psalm.

Breathe the ares of
stars
that twink with wild
experience.
Then exhale for to share
your earned resilience.

Every touch is but
a tap,
a tone,
a melody.
It is what creates
your life
with gorgeous clarity.
