Not All Orchids & Butterflies
No,
No, not all parts
of my new life here
are orchids and butterflies—
wouldn’t be that way anywhere
But in Mexico,
living full-time
as a legalized permanent resident
and all the promise
and commitment
and responsibility
and long-termness that
that brings
that’s for sure…
Life
has its moments
for sure…
they just somehow
seem to have different
edges, and dimensions
here—
some obvious and in your face,
others
subtle and submerged in the color and rhythm of the culture….
