unfettered feet glide
one thin cord between us, I
tether earth to sky

Letter to our Queer & Trans Youth
Hey, you. I thought I’d start this letter by telling you a little about myself, just so you know who you’re dealing with. I’m an emotional dad, father to three amazing kids who we met through the foster care system, and whose presence in our lives has really transformed my sense of responsibility to the communities that surround us. The connections we’ve made with one another, with our extended families, and with the communities where we live and look for belonging have catapulted us into this whirlwind of emotional tumult which, while not easy by any stretch of the measure, has also been remarkably healing. I realize ours is really only a one-sided chosen family, since our kids didn’t get to choose to live here, but I’d like to think that they did choose to let us love them, which allowed them to grow to love us. And I think that’s where I want to go with this letter- to a place where you can find belonging and healing- even if the pathway there may be peppered with some emotional tumult.

You really captured the awe of the visual with your words! Great haiku!!
I would just die because I'm afraid of heights hahaha. Loved your Haiku!
I felt dizzy reading this (after the pic!) Nice one!!
No way I can top Hannah’s comments.
Well that picture grabs the attention, and the poem...one of those "reality is sometimes the most extraordinary thing" moments.
Bloody hell that pic gave me vertigo!!
So creative!😊
Well, this is one I probably wouldn't have thought of! Well done, Christy!
