hmm

February hibernated
frozen breaths, cold feet
June blooms on cherry trees
and apple pies, in picnic baskets.
I don't have to know everything,
but I try to convince you I do.
I hibernate in August
speak loudly in churches,
wear polka dots hats.
I don't have to understand everything
but I want to convince you I do
I'll teach you how to swim,
even ifI'm afraid of water
I'll teach you to fly, vertigo
I'll teach you to hear, even if I don't understand
I'll teach you to sing, to speak, to leave.
