Composting article

I wrote an article on composting for Worldchanging Seattle.

It's great to have another freelance piece out in the world!

A New Space

June 30, 2008

I moved my things -
and my heart -
into a new space
(a familiar, but more comfortable one).

I found your expectations in a box of books,
your hopes mixed in among my pots and pans.
How did your kisses find their way into my bedsheets?

Confused (but pleased) I evaluate the cracks in the paint,
accepting the beauty of each imperfection.
This house and I understand each other.

Perhaps you were here all along?

to be content with you

quiet, calm
balmy night air through the screen door
sunset, light purple, pink, blue
perfume of summer flowers
sprawled out like childhood friends
or lovers
sharing secrets, nothing, everything
the moment
it's hard to imagine being happier
