It rains, and we swim.

Here is my kete.
I hand it over to you
to help navigate.



An invitation,
to move forward - to look back.
Weave them together.



Watch your footprint hold,
lifting slow as you progress,
It follows close by.



Creating a moment to
recognise yourself
in a former step.



These are my small steps,
connecting our birth, our growth.
It cushions my weight.



Watch as our pathway
absorbs the water around.
It rains, and we swim.
