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

Health Update
I think I must have whatever is going around that causes me to spend way too much time with the porcelain fixture I complained about so enthusiastically. Yuck!
This is from Dave Barry's blog: JOE MILLIONAIRE UPDATE
He still has not made up his mind! This is because he faces a very difficult choice. Also, he has the IQ of a lawn ornament.
Back to me now. Thanks, Dave.
Actually, I prefer the butler.
