New Moon on Monday

Some days are meant to get things done

but this is not one

it’s the new moon on Monday

and all I really want to do

is take out the *to do'*

to tell myself it’s okay

to luxuriate

to meditate

to sit still for awhile

Like a mountain

Or a tree

And let the world swirl around me

Maybe I’ll cast some spells

from my mouth in song

or carry my tired body

to the hammock swing

but I know the most important thing

is that my body gets breathed

My spirit gets aired out

My heart filled with new fire

Today is a day for rest + sweetness

Tomorrow I’ll get to work
