It's true.
As the writing has become habit, so too, have my eyes opened...
wider
deeper
longer.
I walk in the woods and the trees part above me,
dappling the ground with gold and amber.
The crisping air carries the shouts of children further
and
makes the call of the goose lonelier.
I touch the earth and I know its pulsing,
I feel its journey
through
each
and
every
sun-drenched day.
To write is to become soused in the glory of the daily
and
sometimes
you can scarcely catch your breath.
It is exhilarating.
It is terrifying.
It is rich.
World without end.
Amen.
