Returning

Well I suppose
The first step might be
To consider from where
Why I was there
What was it like
Why leave it
Where am I now
What direction am I going
What guides me
How will I know I’m at the next place

Well I can’t answer all those questions
Not now anyway
But returning itself has elements of the answer
Perhaps it has been a retreat
Spurred by the pandemic
By restrictions of social contact
By physical disabilities
The shoulders
The hands
Fatigue
By stifling of the creative impulse
By cutting off paths to the imagination
By allowing anxiety to cloud my view

    Glad for your return, and rediscovery of paths to imagination, or perhaps new paths…

    I think sitting on the dock with a coffee is a good next step ♥️
