Day #211 of (mostly unedited) daily writing/sharing.

Note: (I will now be posting MY (MOSTLY) DAILY WRITING only on weekdays, rather than 7 days/week)Jane

Dear Aging Body

I bow to you, 
to these legs that carry me 
from here to there, 

to these eyes, these ears that see 
and hear and memorize the way 
they say mama and I love you,

to this voice that asks questions, 
says please and 
thank you and no thank you,

to this skin that feels today’s
crisp breeze, the warm of the sun, 
the soft of the furry one, 

to these hands that pick flowers, 
turn pages, 
fold into prayer, 

to these insides 
that can feel the truth 
when the truth is here.
