29 days until I leave Sonoma County.
My heart has watched the days count down, the To Do items get crossed off, the altars become bare:
I (have to) let go
I (have to) make room
I (have to) surrender—stories, things, patterns, griefs, expectations, collaborations, control, complacency…

APHRODITE'S DAY
I touch the water,
and remember how Love
was born,
is born
across waves,
and steps onto the shore
as a blessing,
as a spell of transformation,
as a divine promise,
as a dare.
