Heading into a new decade, I’m looking back, & looking forward. Time passes so quickly. It was only yesterday I was a child playing make believe with my brother. Today my 8-month-old son pulled himself to standing for the first time, & my 2-year-old daughter announced, loudly, at dinner, “I’m a sweetheart!”
Happy New Year, friends. Here’s a poem (originally showcased as part of The Games We Play exhibit at the Kelowna Art Gallery in summer 2017) about Mario Kart 64. Out of everything in this hard & beautiful world, it still makes most sense to love each other.
For more of my love poetry, please check out my book, The Brightest Thing.
