Tenderness Cannot Be Overlooked: Kathryn Kinney

March 24, 2020 Kate Belew with Kathryn Kinney (Michigan)

There is a hill somewhere covered in myrtle

Whose soft cushions of shiny green invite my tread.

The value of tenderness cannot be

overlooked as I let my mind nestle cares among the leaves. 

I leave them there and know they will be looked after.
