Sweet Relief

This morning, rather than 
reaching reaching reaching
for the device, rushing to do, to un-do—
rather than trying to make sense 
of the senseless, tidying up the mess, 
water what is parched, fill what seems
to be empty—I simply sit. Lift 
closed eyes to the cloudless July sky. Sit 
some more. Notice the tickle of breeze 
on bare skin, notice what it feels like to notice 
without reaching for, or trying to get rid 
of a single thing. Yes, even the worry, 
the sorrow, the deep, deep longing 
get to stay. It all gets to stay, to be
just as it is.
