“may i be i is the only prayer--not may i be great or good
or beautiful or wise or strong
today... may i be me....five foot eleven, brown hair/eyed,
smart, serious, happy, frustrated, impatient, joyful, running, sleeping,
smiling, eating, trying, believing, listening, being & becoming.”
― E.E. Cummings

today
this joyous, soggy, darkish day
this slightly jet lagged
day
may i be me
five foot ten
gray haired, blue eyed
slightly worn at the edges
smart, passionate
impulsive, wistful,
curious, confused
competent/incompetent
effective/ineffective
open/closed
transparent/hidden
joyful/sad
calm/angry
believing/unbelieving
ambiguous
ambivalent
yet infinitely precious
me
