Things I would
gather today:
- a string of bright blue beads against the evil eye
- some spicy Mayan hot chocolate in a chipped cup
- a pack of mismatched dogs, to walk in Central Park
- some favorite book, funny and wise
- my twisted silver bracelet, like a length of silver rope
- all my dear friends, to coddle, thank, and feed on pappardelle, porcini, berries in orange liqueur
- my softest sweater, most worn blue jeans
- my grandparents’ jar of glass marbles, to set in the windowsill
- a whole embroidery of trails up gentle hills (green and white threads, like the unicorn tapestries)
- kindness, hope
