the new day
November 1st, 2009
Day births, growing brighter by the moment. The sunlight kisses my eyes, and I open them. I stretch and linger in the warmth of bed, taking deep slow breaths that fill my lungs and recharge my spirit, reconnecting to my body and my Goddess.
Eventually, I rise and don long stripy socks. The chill air wraps around me as I open the back door and step out into the morning. The sun makes stripes on the cool cement, and I move so my stripes align. The synchronicity brings me joy.
I sing a greeting to the day. I gently lower myself into the swing. I watch the breeze and the tall grasses dance.
I am ready.
