I am putting away
the past today
in exchange for a new way.
The heart has infinite space.
There's room enough
for a new day,
new love and morning times
grown from the compost
of coffee grounds from yesterday,
egg shells and dried sage,
onion rinds and decomposing
leaves from the driveway;
I turn the heap, leaving behind
the backyard for the front porch,
the sunrise and the highway.
