snail mail

[ a picture and a poem ii - day one ]

you speak so fast,
yet you say so slow.
you'll take some time
to get to know -
you carry every letter
that makes your story whole.
whether it sings to your spirit
or it sinks down in your soul,
you make sure every message
makes your heart its home,
every sign that you're given
has someplace to go. 
you're like a mailman
in the snow.
