+when words we use have lost their bite

Tennis shoes, celtic designs, staying on top of things, rustling/crunching leaves, reflections on smooth glassy surfaces, celebration cupcakes and smiles, confrontation but independence, fully engaged, believing in someone, catching up with dogs involved, hunger, frustrations that teach lessons, homemade spaghetti, a new conversation, dreaming, being the best part of each others' days, real love and deep concern, warmth, t-shirts, support, an encouraging note that felt like it was lost and now found, breathing slowly.
