It's that first breath
as we step through the front door,
off a plane,
or up from under the water,
that grabs us...
like a teethless baby
knawing a plum.
Soo refreshing
in such a neat way.
It's that first breath
that gives us our freedom
a taste of life,
an opportunity to explore.
It's that first breath
that first step
those first words
that make us who we are.
