I Write Because...

I write because
there are mountains

and snowflakes

and snakes with gorgeous patterns on their skin

because children
are honest

and funny and true,

and because the world
is stunningly beautiful
and painful, all at once.

Photo by Werner Kunz

But beyond all that,
I write because
of the books
I read growing up.
