you’re so tiny
and so beautiful
something magical
and blessed above all 

when the enormity
of life and earth and time 
seems to anchor you
calm your busy mind

remember you’re so tiny 
and so beautiful
how could such weight
rest alone on shoulders so small

feel your light
you’re light, you’re rising
up above it all
observing the turn
without feeling the pull 

when you’re ready
to ground yourself
and bear your strength
return relay recall 

how you’re so tiny
so fragile so nimble so beautiful
something sorcerous 
and ever-changing above all 
you’re the universe you are
you are you are

 

love notes
a ritual to start the work week
