As winter, and so much else
winds to an ending
we begin the work
to forge paths back into the world
to be able to walk out without worry
to travel and explore new places
new thoughts, new ways of living
we must be gentle and patient
give grace to the vulnerable of body and feeling
as we each find our own pace in the years ahead
