Blowin' in the Wind

What to eat?  Cupboards get stale, fridge becomes dull.  Who needs a ride?  To here, to there.  To shop, to practise, to games, to friends.  Chatter, ribbing in the back seat, great new tunes playing.  Wind in our hairs, summer in the air. Piano silent, late night movie hum, clack clack clack of tips on keyboards.

Possibilities......space quietly grows - what just happened? 22 years of ...  It's so beautiful, watching them launch, as if from above.  The frozen in time thoughts wave through your mind, joy, sadness.  Not boo hoo, oh whoa is me.  Not, oh lordy, I can't go on.  More, the let go -  it is awesome to be a parent and watch grow what you've cared to create, to see where they start.  With someone who loves you.  

Our insides turnaround.  Our heads rise like meerkats.  Youth, the presence of youth around us.  With its drama, its ethos, its soul, its hum, the lessons to share, the wisdom to discuss, the world to open up.  What its given us.     

A little spooky!
