is warming hands
after the cold
becomes frostbitten.
coffee bean eyes
are wide and bright
her name is
hope after the undone shoelaces
tripping over
hoplessness
falling into misguided
traps for mice.
her name is
comfort, care and connection
her name is
subtly
hero, mother,
her name is another
word for Spes
