body memories from
faithful learning
of walking and talking
fitting in and belonging to
growing and changing
to be chipped at
scraped at
peeled away
keeping qualities while
letting go of trip wires
learning to re-shape all
lessons birthed and grown
to fit the beautiful, confusing
open spaces of retirement.
“Whatever happens to your body, your soul will survive, untouched……”
~ J.K.Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
