In this hush
between the rising and dusk
of one minute and month
a season arriving
a circle recycling
we see sharp and know cold
that not one thing stands
or stands still
Not one thing untouched
but all carried intact
by love
deep, far and beyond.
Repeating this post in honor of those who have come before and for the benefit of those who haven’t.

Thank you for this, Maezen!

I have been “off” all day — tense, angry, barely breathing. It wasn’t until mid-day it occurred to me what it was connected to. Last year I was in the hospital after a C-section with a 3-day-old, so the date was submerged amidst all of that. This year, however, I remembered.
