More snippets from my travels in Ireland


Yesterday was anxious, emotional, angsty
Today all is calm, all is peaceful
there is nothing to do but be,
nothing to anticipate,
nowhere to go but this very moment ~
rushing headlong into a great adventure
~
Through the airplane window
sensuous crescent moon:
the journey begins
~
Smoky, damp air
a spectrum of greys and greens.
Trudging through misty streets
both foreign and familiar ~
it feels good just to breathe
~
Raindrops falling gently
against the windowpane
sleep will come easily tonight
