Untethered in the World

What do I want to do with my time?

 to walk untethered in the world  to wander without a compass only to find my way home at the end of the day  to carry only that which feeds me wholly  to embrace silence until the language of the land becomes my own  to pause when the bones say rest under the outstretched arms of a forest green  to honor the hoof prints of the doe with words rippling down a blank page

and

 to say, “Here, take these words and know the freedom of honoring the yearning of your soul.”
