walking

Daily Walk/ 011

| Sheree

i know in my body

when i’ve reached the point of ease, of relaxation, of joy

my eyes rise skywards, and i take in the clouds,

the breathing is deeper

the moving is slower

the feeling is bright

Daily Walk/010

| Sheree

picking my way through the gravel and stones, downwards,

making progress, slow and with care,

thank you, i would have missed their passing, across the path ahead

one stopped, unperturbed, still and erect, checking me out

checking them out

Daily walk/008

| Sheree

Unto the deep, the deepness of calling

stepping out as a battered sojourner,

into the beauty and stillness of autumn,

strength comes from struggle and speaking the uncomfortable.

Anger but also grace in the refusal.
