Diligence

--

Sunshine filtering through morning curtains

Breathe in, breathe out

Get both feet on the floor

Why are there so many bouncy small humans outside my door?

Oh.

Right.

Thank the Lord.

Eleven head of niblings so far…

The rest of sleep has made a mess of my hair.

Turn around.

Tidying the mess of sheets brings rest to my brain.

A tiny corner of order in chaotic times.

Never neglect those morning prayers…
