Aphorisms for a New Season (Davina)

The magic of holding a baby
is that the baby is so small.

Each of us speeding through the night
has a stretch of the highway we call home.

To leave friends with a full heart
is both tragedy and privilege.

The secret to a good marriage
is good teeth, I mean love.

Winter rain and fading youth
both know how to fall slowly.

The daily act of flossing may be all
that preserves a person’s life.

The secret to leaving without breaking
is to leave a piece of yourself behind.

Winter rain cannot stop a night driver
who knows the road with his eyes closed.

The magic of love is that something so big
starts out as something so small.
