Gestation

This long disorientation,
I, now, understand better;
as my soul is rewritten
I have been learning again
how to breathe and walk
—under water and on air.

It's best not to say too much
or think you know anything;
preferable to keep very still
lest you might spoil everything
—when you are being reborn.

Gestation is hardly time
for any grand pronouncements:
lie low, feed, listen for clues.
Grow, inwardly, in knowing
before declaring it to the world.

—Yahia Lababidi

Nice one!! I feel this one in my life daily right now lol!!

Likewise, dear Ruth, I'm in this stage (and have been for years, now). Must keep reminding myself not to rush things, so as to be born, fully-formed :D

Thank you for being here for me, so I can be here for you.
Enjoy your day and stay creative!
Botty loves you. <3
