space for life

after the madness of the week
i relax.
the long weekend beckons.
i run into it,


with open arms.


the to do list
is long.
the distraction, 
welcome.


i clear papers,
magazines, 
recycle.
i make space,


space for life.


i wait.
expectantly.
ready 
to embrace,


embrace future;


without fear,
with hope.
joyful.
with love.


arms outstretched.


open.
