Into Madness
A cry of shock as as cold air meets brand-new skin. A gasp of breath as little lungs inhale air tinged with sweet hay and sour manure. A head of damp, dark hair scrubbed until curls frame a fragile face. Dark eyes squinting in the light of a lantern, pink mouth yawning, cheeks flushing as […]

On the Edge of Autumn

It was an open-the-curtains-and-light-a-candle kind of day. I met a friend at a local coffee shop downtown to study for an exam and had a pumpkin spice chai latte. […]

“Sadie”–Quote

The First Time You Fly
We live a lot of firsts. The first time you take wobbly steps from the worn coffee table to the warm arms of your mama. The first time you pick out your own outfit for church. The first time you jump into the deep end of a pool. The first time you pedal down the […]
