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

Bloggies
The best weblog awards are being voted on now, and I'd like to urge you to read Waiter Rant which has some of the best writing I've read on the net. Go back in the archives and read some of his posts and see what I mean. I think you'll be glad you did. Then vote!
Ronni Bennett's blog Time Goes By should be on that list. Hers should win for best writing, header, and American blog, at least. So let's pay attention and nominate her when the time comes next year. I hope by voting that I'll receive an email, but those of you who keep up with this, please let me know when nomination time rolls around. Thanks!
Our friend Scaryduck has won several times for his blog and his tagline.
Here's the site for 2006.
