Reflections: A Sequel to Yesterday
Thursday, June 25, 2009
sweet service born early
on a bright day
in which I hoped for clouds
and I open sleepy eyes knowing
I am loved
and I listen to love undoing all
my brave intention
I rest
and feel for soft, butterfly movement
and hear my baby breathing quiet
so peaceful
and wonder how daily time
feels eternal sometimes
I am grateful
and shy
gifted stolen moments
bathed in necessary candle-scent
whispered desire that is real
breakfast prepared in time
for strength
and a little late for work
the wheels of time that
slept last night
do not begin to move
at once today
time pauses
I find me waking into forever
where anything - everything
beautiful
is possible
and dreams come true
are where I live
in this house I don't like
with messes and bugs and heat and no roses
with love that is solid and hopeful and wonderful and
more real than real
oh it is sunny when I wanted
rain
and I am loved

Yes. This is right. This is good.

Okay. :-)
so beautiful! I love your words.
Just found you from Amber's blog. I haven't seen that Sara Teasdale poem in a lot of years- it is lovely. Am exploring your blog some more now...
Mary, mom to many
beautiful.
