High alert
That’s the way I have felt now for over a month.
My body always ready to handle
The next emergency
The next emotional jarring
Gratefully,
I am off high alert this morning.
Gratefully,
I was able to just do self-care yesterday,
after the loss of our son.
Gratefully,
Last night the weather was perfect for an
open air restaurant meal
with gentle guitar music and a good friend.
Today, my body feels like it’s mine.
Like I’m not moving through deep water.
Like when I stretch, it won’t be tight rubber bands.
For now, I’m off high alert.
And I am grateful.
