“I want to lay up like that, to float unstructured, without ambition or anxiety. I want to inhabit my life like a porch.”

― Rebecca Wells, Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood

falling back to sleep early this morning, when I didn’t think I would
accepting how I forget things now and then, without panic
the two of us together out in the garden for a couple of hours
fresh greens from the garden, along with lots of fresh herbs, in the salad I had for lunch
for how this practice has become a bit of routine now, how it has slowed me down,
and become a place to rethink my day, helping me to let of go of frustrations
and turning my focus instead to the simple things that bring me joy …
like daisies, in every room of the house
