When change finally comes,⁠
it often comes long and slow,⁠
and it might feel a little less like victory⁠
and more like a winding road.⁠
So if you start to lose your hope⁠
under this blue, Galveston sky⁠
and you don’t know where to run⁠
or if it is safe to even try⁠
remember: you were made to fly,⁠
no matter what they say.⁠
You are worthy of a life of freedom⁠
without having to live afraid.⁠
⁠
Fly little one, fly⁠
lift your feet⁠
lift your wings⁠
be free.⁠
⁠
Beautiful words and artwork by Morgan Harper Nichols⁠
⁠

Change can be so hard, but we're staying hopeful and standing by all the people that are fighting for their rights. The time for change is now. We're all in this together. ⁠

About Spirits of The Coast:⁠
"Spirits of the Coast brings together the work of marine biologists, Indigenous knowledge keepers, poets, artists, and storytellers, united by their enchantment with the orca. A literary and visual journey through past and possibility, Spirits of the Coast illustrates how these enigmatic animals have shaped us as much as our actions have impacted them, and provokes the reader to imagine the shape of our shared future." ⁠

"There is no time like Spring,⁠
When life’s alive in everything,⁠
Before new nestlings sing,⁠
Before cleft swallows speed their journey back⁠
Along the trackless track –⁠
God guides their wing,⁠
He spreads their table that they nothing lack, –⁠
Before the daisy grows a common flower⁠
Before the sun has power⁠
To scorch the world up in his noontide hour…"⁠
⁠
A poem by Christina Rossetti to celebrate what a beautiful season we're in!

During these scary and uncertain times, we must support one another. We are now all seeing the need to work together and take the same actions so we can move past this pandemic.

We will continue to bring open and beautiful ebooks to the world (while social distancing) because literature has the power to make us more empathic and emotionally balanced. And during these trying times when we can't share our time with our friends or family, we can all use a good book to curl up with.

Stay safe, stay inside, wash your hands and don't stop creating beautiful art!
