The other day I heard
a group of ladybirds is called a loveliness
A group of butterflies? A kaleidoscope
When sharks get together it’s called a shiver
And when starlings fly in a swarm: a murmuration
I wonder what a group of people is called
when they sit together and their souls align
When love feels like the sun
and you know you belong
When your heart leaps into your throat
and breaks a little
When conversations don’t know how to stop
but time does
What would you call it?
I wonder.
