and then there was rest

When I rise, may I rise up joyful, like a bird. When I fall, may I fall without regretting, like a leaf. - Wendell Berry


it seems to me that i fall in love in a tardy fashion.

all it takes to stir my heart to consider love
is to sit under a tree,
with a friend,

and laugh as sturdy leaves fall to our heads

and marvel at how God likes blue.
