Rest

 


I settle into my sleepiness

like it's a soft chair
that sends rest up through me,
growing like fast vines
to form a cradling network

There is so much more to do,
but I've fallen, gratefully,
into the willingness to let it go another day,
to let the wave of eagerness
catch up to me again
so I can ride it
through the next phase of my work.
