The electricity went down sometime
In the middle of the night
Wood stoves still had some coals
It takes longer to make coffee
In a wood burning stove
Hippies like me
Have something to warm up
At all times
Leftovers have saved my life
A few times
When you live off the regular grid
Water; electricity and firewood: propane
Winter is beautiful too windy fucking cold
Candles and incense and smokes
But what happened to me
Is I got unplugged
What have I been giving my attention to
My Mind is playing scrabble with Spanish and Italian
Oh yes the puppy
The writing
The painting
Self disapline or just eat
Wait for the granddaughter to be born
Too filled with all that hope and desire
To see new life again
These women are tough
I was not as agile with childbirth
I dream of being able to walk without pain in my toe
The titanium toe
My hands look like a mountain woman
Cracked and raw
Because I cannot remember when I’m asleep to put gloves on
Eucalyptus trees and cypress
Perfect firewood 🪵
I dream of a time when I understand
What my gifts are for
Why do I see these things ?
This morning I woke up and I saw a storm above the sea
The sun came out
Oh
I wanted that sunlight desperately
Passion of change
Bringing new cells to life
Transforming thoughts
Deep emotional joy
The kind that you know is a gift
Unwinding
Re- aligning
Grateful
Gracias
