Return

Life does have a good sense of humor 

First I had to spend years and years –

to learn how to be an appropriate adult

Then I had to spend years and years -

to relearn how to be like a child again…

There is nothing-

 really needed to add to our being to be happy;

But there is much-

needed to be released to find back our inner peace;

Sometime less is indeed more.

Here I am,

feeling the freshness of crispy air coming in and out of my lungs;

fascinating over the sun rays reflecting on the ice flakes making them like magical crystals;

checking out the small creatures  hidden under the stone in the creek;

giggling like a child being caught by some snow falling from a tree branch into my neck…

I know, maybe, to many others-

I have been growing more and more foolish;

Yet I know, for sure, to my own soul-

it has been growing the rejoices for my return

to ALL that is of pure spirit

to ALL that is wonderous and mysterious ……

Happy New Year 2019!
