AI generated image of a younger version of me looking at the stars and cosmos from the mountains.

Years ago, I stood on Arthur’s Seat—the ancient volcanic summit overlooking Edinburgh—with the wind rushing past and the entire city spread below me.

From that height, the world just felt immeasurable.

I didn’t yet know about the house fire—the rewriting. The weight life would carry.

But I was small inside something vast—and I was still here.

This month, I share Spoonful of Gravity.

🌌 Another year under the same universe. 🌌

Years ago I climbed Arthur’s Seat above Edinburgh. From that summit, the world felt ancient and immense. That moment became my poem “Universe.”

Singing on the Porch Singing on the Porch is a nostalgic look at a childhood remember of a girl and her grandmother in the rural south.

I remember times of sitting on my grandmother's screened in porch, listening to the rustle of leaves in the oak tree nearby. It's branches provided a cool spot to rest during the heat of the day.
