Waking Back Up Again
Dabbling wood ducks
Downy woodpeckers
And Springs first set of peepers.
So much we thought
Was gone
Or lost
Or forgotten
Has simply been
sleeping.
Breathe easy.
And long and deep.
And be gentler with yourself.
And with the nature of things.
Life’s wonderful creatures
And ways of being
Do not scold us for forgetting.
They just continue with their
cyclical ways
working and playing.
Rewarding us
For watching.
Reminding us
What needed
remembering
relearning
&
renewing.
