Strange, how things can come about so unexpectedly;
\nStrange, how friendships can develop so naturally
\nWhen masks are accepted to be worn and removed so frequently
\nWhen the heat of one\u2019s heart and mind can move so fluidly.
\nIt was like that, when fireflies were pixies, interchangeably;
\nWhen bears lived in cottages and ate porridge to beat winter\u2019s lethargy.
\nWhile there\u2019s no bottle of potion to bring about invisibility,
\nStrange, how one can harness the zoom of grown-up anxiety
\nWhile watching the treeline fade to darkness, nightly.
\nIt was like that, when I incarnated a pixie, lately,
\nWhen invisibility shrouded us from one another, distantly,
\nWhile I drank organic gin and elderflower tonic, recently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
