grand circus park, detroit, michigan, usa – 1920s
—
walking in the beautiful snowfall yesterday, it was clear some things never change, even after 100 years
—
“snow was falling, so much like stars filling the dark trees
that one could easily imagine its reason for being was nothing more than prettiness.”

flowers found in an unexpected place – detroit, michigan, usa
once the rain came
and the temperature rose by 50 degrees
and the snow and ice turned
to slush, and mud, and dirty water
and the discovery of this
brought such a level of joy and celebration
to the sandbox
that it was immeasurable.

today i leave ireland
where i went
to find my heart again
and
while here
i found
so many beautiful hearts
all around me
everywhere i went
each
unique and lovely
in its own way
and
in the most unexpected of places.
