Retreat

Immersed in the spiritual –
not yet fully present –
participating,
considering
new beginnings,
openings

so much easier
to go back to sleep
leave the living
to the younger
more energetic

generations
surpassing me
clued in to
technology,
modern nuances

yet, even they
slumber, lulled
by a confidence
I too once donned,
before immersing
myself in the spiritual.

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential.

  3. Gorgeous image! And love your perspective … yes, let the younger generation(s) follow the current fads (they don’t yet, but we know that in time those too will fade into oblivion, replaced by something only THEIR “younger generations” comprehend. The perpetual shifting can do its thing w/o my supervision – I’ll go drift into the clouds, content.
