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

Back Home
It's good to visit and good to be back home again. Had a great time at Kathy's and really enjoyed seeing all them again. We played games and watched movies (Ice Age and Spirit). The only time I watch animated movies is with them. It's much more fun seeing them with children.
I'm watching the movie about Enron which confirms my biases against the greed factor of business. I wish the truth would come out about the corruption of more of them and how they are ruining people's lives. It's not an honorable way to live. There are businesses that make a profit and have leaders with integrity.
Thank you so much for the email and comments! It was great to have them to read when I got home. I hope all of you are doing OK. Please let me know. I'm out of the loop. Any news?
