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

Week in Review
I've been incredibly sleepy this week - partly because I've been tired from the Rituxan and partly because of my evil cat Brigit. She wakes me up during the night by walking across me and then tapping me on my shoulder. I am not amused. I took something last night to help me get to sleep and have slept almost all day. It doesn't take much for me!
HGTV and TLC give me so many ideas for what I want to do with my house. Moving is one thing I'd like to do but can't reasonably do it since I won't find this much space for the amount I'm paying. Before then, I'll work on this one.
