Poetry by Kat Stubing
Butterflies prancing in air
Pulling a sleigh of light
I can’t help but wonder
Where you went last night
While the fireflies reigned
Over blades of wily grass
Periwinkle skies rolling in
As the thunder clouds passed
Did the twigs pop like corn
Under your bare calloused feet
As the owls watched you run
To the secrets that you keep
Oh, tiny wings, show me the
Way to lenity and peace
To unobscured waters
And a pure love to lease
Kat Stubing studied at UMBC and took sketch writing classes at Upright Citizens Brigade. Her poems are published (or soon to be) in Beyond Words, Allegory Ridge, Closed Eye Open, and Wingless Dreamer. Kat lives, works, and plays in New York City.
