when i wake and I say "i love you" when I wake and wonder what will work what won't work (when i wake i love you) rise to meet the challenge rise to face what's unknown with what i understand rise to move, i hear the wind whisper silent words to my heart.
"it's time to get up now.
time to get out of bed.
time to rise.
go get on the potty.
get off the potty now.
put your clothes on right now.
eat your food.
it's time to go right now.
we don't want to be late.
it's time to get to school.
i love you.
it's time to get to work.
i love you.
it's time to get to work" crack the code time to do it again and again.
time to pick up the kids.
time to fix some dinner.
"you need to take a bath.
eat your food.
go to bed.
go to bed.
get back in that bed now! i mean it! i really do mean it.
i love you" when i lie down again i hear the wind whisper unheard words interpret intuit sleep on it ask for the answer in the morning when i will get up to say again "i love you.
" when i will wake up and get the green and know that the wind will whisper words of wisdom heard without hearing but i'm always listening getting green then giving it up for groceries grains, goodies going back giving up elbow grease get and give and get more get better get good stuff get to be the good guy the greatest grandest and grooviest, keeping it grounded and greasy, still grinding, still growing, still knowing the wind whispers wisdom words that do need to be heard, groans and moans in overtones.
what's been done? what needs to be done? re- arranging? the agent of change is whistling in my ear drum saying "do it again and again and again with gusto.
go north go south get in and get off see glory in glimmers of light be- tween each day each night, and take flight in the wind.
" it will alter it's course force you to recognize.
grease it up.
grind and groan and grow.
get the green and give it up give it up give it up to get give get more do all your chores and listen to the wind that never rests never gets where it's going.
the wind whispers wisdom words that need to be heard work every latch whip every leaning fence whistle in the window wake women who listen for hungry wailing and wisdom in the wind.
rise with the sun walk fast as the youngest child, work with women who wear what they sow in their face and wear what they sew in their face who weep and wait, weep and wait, weaving together yesterday today and tomorrow listening to the wind whispering words, whistling in windows waking the women who work, weep and wonder why who, what for what would be should be could be and say "i love you.
time to rise time to walk time to work time to woo time to win time to rise time to walk time to work time to woo time to win time to come" to go in and out in and out to say again "i love you" time to say "i love you" nothing will change nothing stays the same.
nothing will change nothing stays the same.
the kids grow sometimes slow sometimes quick then it is time to go to come to go in and out, in and out, to work to win to woo to rise to rise to be.
to be free.
nothing ever changes.
nothing will stay the same.
remember to say that "i love you.
" listen for the answer in the wind whipping at what won't last exposing facades, fake freedom, and false whispers.
"i love you.
" it is time to rise to work and then return from work to work and return from work with welcoming words.
won't you embrace me my sweet ir- replacea- ble treat chase my soaring spirit hear it in the wind chimes.
our hearts keep the rhythm of time we speak in rhyme with words weighted with wisdom i whisper in the wind "i love you.
" your spirit will hear it.
