Time to Detach

 As nightfall came into bed I slipped

My shadow stepped into my inner cathedral

Announcing it wanted an audience to quibble

Why didn't I say what I really meant?

Why didn't I go where I wish I had went?

It gave me examples for next time around

I dismissed it at some point taking flight into sleep

I awakened more slowly than normal it seemed

Slowly recovering I walked through the house

Sitting in my lanai I could see squirrels and sunshine

Surrounded by doves gently cooing away

I said "Oh how beautiful it is this new day!"

I will wait and do nothing, just watch it unfold

Waiting with patience in my safe nest

Progress will happen, now it's time to detach.
