For you Jensine!

This poem was inspired after hand-washing my laundry on the rooftop of the Crossroads building. Watching the newly washed shirts blow in the wind gave me a deep sense of freedom and rest. :)

Washed

Crumpled clothes dumped.
Churned. Scrubbed. Moved
from bin to bin.
Hung. Dripping. Blowing
free in the wind.
Leaves behind the old,
in dark to light pools.
Crucified. Resurrected. New.
