one little thing at a time
...and bring a pen.
I feared i might sober up
and there wouldn't be much to write,
but slowing down to take a look,
moving at the pace of life,
not rushing it,
but taking it as it is,
seems so much more now to jot down,
I can hardly keep up with pen.
This is where the real poetry is,
and where it's always been...
Those loooong Journeys
cross-countries by foot,
and deeper still,
on more spiritual quests within.
Strolling along without worry or care,
relying on faith without understanding of a godlike dose of "luck"
that seems ta always just, be here.
The poetry is in the moment
when it's written, where it's found,
life exciting, breathing, be still and
witness it all around.
