there is no formula for letting go
except, perhaps, to accept the fall

The beginning
Adventures can begin with an explosion
but sometimes the first unrecognized steps can begin
in silence

Homecoming
Welcome home, dear one!
How long I’ve waited to hear your footsteps across the threshold;
come, let me give you rest
let me give you solace
let me give you nourishment,
for the journey is far from over,
even when you’ve arrived
