I got up early and watched the lake mist
greet the rising sun and usher in a new day.
It’s was an amazing Christening ceremony as the geese across the lake
declared it was Christmas. We kayaked
after a light breakfast silently gliding across the calm glass covered lake
singing our favorite Christmas carols and following a small Blue Heron whose disappearing
reflection in the water reminded me of life’s temporariness. My stamina has been decreasing as my chemo
fatigue increases, so after a late brunch, I slept most of the afternoon,
waking just in time to catch the early rise of the full moon. She danced with the building storm clouds
like I dance with my chemo fatigue and several times I caught her peeking
through the tall pines, and I felt hope as my passion for life was reflected in
her dance and presence. Dance with life today!
