Today I appreciate having some
Deep Down Time
to explore the richness underneath
where I can live through the space
in between my thoughts
I find a fertile ground where
thoughts and words emerge
like a giving back
after all that’s been taken in
and tended to like a gardener would
Though I can never be sure
exactly what will spring forth where
and am always surprised when
some volunteers show up
What comes might wrap itself into a poem
or provide an intention for the rest of the day
or a project for the days ahead
What I know for certain is that
my connection in these moments
feels true and whole
Not a searching or imagining but
a grounded sense of the path I’m on
even when the outcome isn’t sure
