my step is light,
my head is clear
(if rather empty)
I haven't stowed
things I couldn't say,
I haven't worried,
I haven't tried to solve
someone else's problems,
or taken in ill-fitting attributions
I've been open to the knowing
which accompanies all being,
I have taken on good tasks
and brought them to completion,
there has been joy, there has been laughter,
there has been kindness -
I am content, for that has been enough.
