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

Fall Weather At Last!
The weather is cooler and makes me feel great! I just love it when this happens. Fall is my favorite season and wish I could live where it's spring and fall all the time with maybe two weeks each of summer and winter.
This weekend is the Southern Festival of Books, and I'm planning to go with friends tomorrow and Saturday afternoons. More about that after I have something to report.
There are so many activities in October. What are you doing?
