How Well

#1 Post by DonSchaeffer » Fri Oct 21, 2022 3:07 pm

Yes,
I know the world well enough.
I can see when it weeps.
I know when it
wants to laugh. I lay
with it when it sleeps.
I hear its breathing and
sighing when breath
doesn't satisfy. I know
the pacing of its steps.
I live the subtle secrets
even if I can't name them all.
I spit the hard ones out
like cherry pits.
It's my place even when it hurts.
I meditate its loss.

Don,
Sounds like you were out on a nature hike. That is what I need !

My nature hike is one solitary room.
