birthday (for Krista)

the moment
of recognition
the spark
of connection
the recognition
in the moment
of connection
to the spark

we all began somewhere — the day we met our parents, our friends, our community
today is the anniversary of some event for every person in the world
that shared connection, the experience of beginnings
today is the anniversary of the birth of my oldest and longest-term friend
what do you celebrate today?
