sits more steady than the fog
and the frost that cases spider silk
and grass stalk
It settles in the warmth from last night's fire,
radiated from the stone,
shared with floor and walls
Seven fifteen, and the wellness of the morning
crackles in the new fire,
rests softly in the work
left over from last night
Be well - your life thrives
before any of these things -
it brings the wellness through,
its source infinite,
its expression unconfined.
