When We Were Children

We are all tired 


tired of the day 


the season 


the night 


tired of the work 


that builds our lives 


and yet we continue


to be grateful, 


to laugh


to love


to create families and homes.


Perhaps our energy feels low 


because the life we live 


is filled with so much more than 


the one that we promised ourselves 


when we were children.


Can we not rest easy within this abundance?


“It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.”

~ E.E. Cummings
