What does one do with
a topsy turvy morning
when everything was planned
when part of the plan was
to be relaxed and be happy
interrupted by the forgotten
an attempt at reshuffling
to fit in the sudden
and still make breakfast.
only one ~
or maybe two things ~ to do
snatch calmness from the air
be still and keep moving
let go of the sudden and
go with the plan.
“Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?
~ Mary Oliver, The Summer Day
