Daily Napkin for Monday, February 1, 2010

In the belly
growing and readying
to sprout
and now the quickening
begins anew
Imbolc's promise
Brigid's dreaming
Life awakening
unto itself
kicking and rejoicing
being alive

Winds of Change

Little catepillar
leaned hard against
the winds of change
bending even his freckle-hairs
in the effort
Suddenly
the wind changed
shifted
and blew him over

Daily Napkin for Thursday, January 28, 2010

In a flurry
of self contemplation
the truth tickled my fancy
Now
and again
before settling into the bones
in quiet acquiescence
Assimilation of the facts
provided only a side note
tucked amongst the light
