Because We Can

May we forget to hold on 
to what happened yesterday, 
and all the days before yesterday, 
forget to hold tight to that which was never 
meant to be held. May we forget 
to take our thoughts seriously—unless 
they are abundantly kind, gushing with grace, 
beaming with love. May we lean, always, 
toward love, especially when we’re scared. 
May we be abundantly generous 
with our compliments, our kindness, 
choose not to believe in lack or less or anything
that makes us feel bad. May we open our mouths 
to feed one another, like the cardinal 
at my dear friend’s feeder opened its mouth 
to feed the small sparrow struggling to find food. 
May the word yes always be on the tip of our tongue. 
May we scatter seeds wherever we go—
because we can.
