Unready

Unready yet open

Here is a moment
never experienced before
a sky never seen before.
This particular arrangement
of layers and colours
never known before.

Unready yet open
otherwise
I am unseeing
unalert
to what is available for me
in this moment
unable
to receive its gifts.

Unready yet open
willing to be touched
to be moved
to greet the space that unfolds.

I don’t need to be ready
unready is enough
unready is real.
