I used to worry I was controlling
I used to believe life was busy
I used to wish I was kinder
patient
focused.
Then one day
I looked out my window
and saw a tree
a frozen
perfect
perfect tree.
I nearly choked
on the epiphany
we arrive inside
an envelope
of bones
there is nothing to be done
about this
so fill it with strength
let it brim
with courage.
Not bad, hey? You too can be a poet laureate. I found this instapoem generator through a Danielle Laporte email this morning. Great way to start the day in a DIY kind of way. See? I can't stop! PS that tree is our old man. He resides in the cedar forest above our house. Quietly keeping watch.
