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

Isidore
We're getting the Isidore rains. We needed rain since things had become so dry, and now it's making up for it. Some places have flooding problems, so I hope it doesn't overdo it.
My hair looks much better. I've been going to Terry Tucker for over 25 years, I think. He's really good and cuts my hair well. It's not that easy since it's naturally curly. Many people messed it up.
I slept all morning. I got up around 7:30 and then got on the couch and slept some more. This rain makes me lazy.
I just looked at the times on the posts and they are correct now. Go figure!
