Free write

Love, peace, kindness and peppermint tea are the thoughts that hover in my mind as I sit and write and listen to Bill Withers and Who is he and what is he to you / and I hear the helicopters above and wonder what they want and if all the noise is really necessary / I listen to music that brings me happiness / I think about poetry and who will show up in class and what words and stories will be shared / I am loving myself / I am appreciating myself and my dreams / I miss my sister and niece who are out of town this week / I am proud of them / I am thinking about what pictures will show up in my mind / I am loving myself today and my friends and family too
