because of what you have learned,
sometimes when yr not thinking about it
or trying so hard
you realize that yr walking the right path
and the mountain you were climbing
has become the pebbles beneath yr feet.
you know it's good
when you find yrself constantly looking forward
to what's coming next.
anticipation, not dread nor fear,
and you don't want to wait till the holiday
to see what gift lies beneath the thin sheath
of whatever keeps it hidden;
you think you know what it is,
the shape looks familiar-
it was first on the wish list
you forgot you had written.
