writing is listening
it says thank you
for the dishes in the sink
the water
the pipes
the flow with a slight movement of hand
how supportive
of my happiness
"your every need will be met"
before you ask, it is given
yes, a cupboard of plates
a drawer of spoons
a heart of gold
a friend of softness
a light in the window
a bed of rest
a thought without effort
a word unannounced
a healing unspoken of
a freedom
just breezed in the door
wisdom ever present in the closets of our mind
ever watching
ever waiting
in silence
behind the shiny outfits
we are awakened before we ever awaken
watching from behind the scenes
a play we wrote so long ago
as kids we made it up
one rainy afternoon
as kids we built the blanket forts
camped out in the yard
and made signals with flashlights
all preparation for adulthood
all things
before you need them
ideas in our mind
forever there
are everything we've ever needed
freedom
