it is good
to sit silently
with a small, calm purpose
it is early in the morning
but already dinner is simmering
the dishes washed
sunlight reflecting miniature sunrises
off teapots, glasses
the heat of the day has only begun to envelop the house
the day sits
words to be written
for a moment
i am rooted
i have found my place in the world
small
bright
and unassuming
