(Re)Birth ...

There's something bigger about the planet after it rains.

Like it makes space.
Cleans.
More ease,
more air,
less pressure,
lighter.

Empty,

But not desolate.

A kind of expectant pause,
in all the density of living full ...
A space made clean to fill up
new, from clarity.

The air around expands
& there is space for more
and it comes easily.

The impossible feels possible,
there is space for every plausible & implausible thing
& more,
but no rushing.
Just the space.

The air is big
I grow
I fill it up
It fills up me
I am everywhere

& quiet

& there is power there in the quiet space of me

I breathe in the space and am
grateful.
