The river awakens

50 Week of March 14    

The river, ice-bound, winter-enchanted

Joyfully, powerfully breaks free

Rushing forward, revealing itself

Dancing towards the sea

Power of becoming finds its goal

Pouring itself into me.

As last week closed, I announced to my students, their parents, and my colleagues that I will not be returning to teach fourth grade next year. It is time for me to move into a new phase.

The moon is full. The earth is awakening. Changes are afoot. Possibilities are all around. What wants to become in your life this spring?
