funny the pull of the tide
funny the call of the waves
sifting through the stones like a gentle comb
It just comes and goes-
Goodby, sweet summer flavour
Today I upgrade
blessed for a birthday on the road
a Momentary lull
of nothing behind nothing
ahead
I just come and go
One promenade in
One sleepy town in
One tiny island empire in
One colossal, infinite world
Of all places to be, here I am
Go
Small figure of noodle limb and limber mind
Succomb to the pull, but return
You're great. Happy Birthday again.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Elise. It's wonderful to hear about your adventures. We are of course celebrating with Ben today -- sometime there should be a joint birthday party! It's the end of a long long week for Jonathan who has been working 48 hour days every day (well, maybe I exaggerate a bit). I am looking forward to the weekend. Lots to do at home and in and around Ottawa. I have become an enthusiastic inline skater since you left.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday and lots of love, Jude
