this will be the first summer in twenty years that my sister will be celebrating her birthday without her most beloved at her side.
this is the first summer ever, that my daughter is envisioning her life as a young adult, stepping into the world, dipping her toe, checking to see.
this is the first year i have ever considered taking my time, really, and moving into next things with some grace.
ain't that hilarious.
"meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,
are headed home again."
ain't it funny that
"the world will call to you like the wild geese,
harsh and exciting,
over and over again announcing your place
in the family of things."
you can see why?
i'm not on tour? yet? still?
