New Beginnings

written by: J. G. Elas

Winter came with snow
and covered us in white,
casting an icy glow—
the same feeling he
showed that night.

Spring came with hope
renewing my shattered heart,
I reached the end of the road,

If you love me in the Summer
and all the things I have behind,
I hope you love me still despite
all the things that I'm.

For in the Fall I fell hard
and he took a step back.
Be my gravity, pull me close—
and glue my cracks.

Resurrection by Suzanne Craig-Whytock

On the day that Budgie died, I was young and very sad. He was a pretty bird, always singing in his cage. Sometimes we let him out to fly around, and on that day, the curtains were wide open and he slammed into the glass hard. Momma put him into a shoe box and I cried as we buried him in the back garden among the lilies. The next morning, very early, I snuck out of the house and dug him up with a garden trowel because I wanted to see him one more time. When I took the lid off the shoe box, his eyes were open and his wings fluttered ...
