I wander
through
my favorite
woods
and everyday
there is
something new…
A lesson
A creature
A truth
that settles
deep within
my bones…
I stand at
the threshold
of ‘old age’.
Everything has
changed,
eyesight blurs
insight sharpens.
Hearing dims
but some
sounds sharpen,
I hear the
heartbeat
of the notes
within a
symphony…
I move slower
but I notice
more…
This new phase,
my last phase…
I have earned
my right
to claim being
a Wise Woman.
I embrace
these changes,
it is an
honor
many never
see…
