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

TV
I read that Candace Bergen will join the cast of Boston Legal as one of the partners. I can't wait to see what her character will be like since David E. Kelley has written some of the quirkiest characters on American television. I've missed Murphy Brown and looked forward to watching it every week. Now she'll join James Spader and William Shatner who have roles that must be a hoot to play. Alan Shore and Denny Crane are hilarious to watch and would be interesting to know. Not sure about working with them, though. Whew!
