ALL IN ITS OWN GOOD TIME
I rise from the pit
Pry your fingers lose
From my throat
You release me
We sit in the tree tops
Whistle to ourselves
Hum a happy tune
From long ago
Gather the eggs in the yard
Still warm
We hold them close
Touch their creamy shells
We hold them to our ears
Listen for their magic
Sounds of the universe
Stars collide
Muffled sounds come to us
Words we cannot understand
Feet of clay
Skin of dust
All in its own good time
Don’t push

I love the gathering of the creamy eggs....memories of long-gone Easters.
