The Waking
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I feel my fate in what I cannot fear.
I learn by going where I cannot go.
We think by feeling. What is there to know?
I hear my being dance from ear to ear.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Of those so close beside me, which are you?
God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there,
And learn by going where I have to go.
Light takes the Tree, but who can tell us how?
The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair;
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Great Nature has another thing to do
To you and me; so take the lively air,
And, lovely, learn by going where to go.
This shaking keeps me steady. I should know.
What falls away is always. And is near.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I learn by going where I have to go.
--Theodore Roethke

I thought you needed to know what I'm dealing with here. I got this email from Cindy Draper helping me out. Now you know why I don't have a comment page on here! We get a webpage on Comcast which I plan to use. I'm probably going to call in help from former students who offered to show me how to do it. I bought a book on how to use html and how to make a webpage, and when I do, I plan to have a comment section. See how brave I am!
This is what she sent! LOL She is a hoot!
I don't want to alarm you, but you are 6 days behind on the newsletter. I am going to start adding my own entries:

Went out with Tom Selleck again tonight. We are so hoping his wife won't find out. It is so difficult to hide from the press. He wants me to marry him since Cindy won't be his wife. I guess he will just have to learn to settle for second best.

Woke up to birds singing "Oh What A Beautiful Morning" today. They sing almost as good as my terrificly talented Boa Babe Friend, Cindy. She has the voice of an angel. And a halo around her head. I am sure that when she is near, I hear the rustle of angel wings. I am so blessed to know her.
