I find it romantic

hearing the mumbling of a quieted bass-voice

wistful and melodic in the room next door

Giggles blanketed by midnight snow

A conversation that isn’t mine

Their February tune in that moon-lit kitchen

It’s #NativeFamilyFriday.

I am going to make a thread below of Native families who are needing urgent support.

We don’t need the shame or blame for doing everything our bodies and minds are able to, for our families to survive.

Please contribute and share the responses.

Mad cravings for dill pickles. But I also need substance. So, I’m currently boiling eggs, and I’ll incorporate them somehow (sandwich is a obvi choice I have), but also need other ideassss
