My own transformation...

Things are changing here

in this space,

have you felt it?

Since the summer

things have not been the same for me

not just here

but in many areas of my life.

Change is always inevitable.

Things are slowing down

though I have never had so many things on the go

as I do right now

a definite storm before the calm  

I won't go into what I am doing

it's not as important as the desire I have

to disconnect and pull away from this 

hustle and bustle world.

I know it has a lot to do with where I live.

An over populated metropolitan area

where suburbs now run into each other 

making the boundaries so blurded

we might as well call it all

Vancouver.

But I long for the stillness of my studio

where I can birth the stories

that sit on my chest

and digest in my stomach.

The ones that wait in my ribs

and are racing through my blood

while living in my cells.

It will come

but to all things there is a process

Transformation takes time...

As I write that I think of Butterfly

How even after she leaves her cocoon

fulling transformed

into her hew beautiful self

she sits and waits.

Before she sets off into her new life

she has to hang for a while

so her wings can inflate.

She then has to wait for them to dry

and harden.

This process can take up to 6 hours.

Could you imagine

you've been cocooned for months

during which time you have gone through

an amazing transmutation;

one in which you can now FLY!!!

But yet

you sit

you wait

you remain

until the time is just right.

I think that is where I am at.

Waiting for my wings to inflate...

and this cannot happen too quickly 

or I will be crippled

for life

it is a delicate process...

perfectly timed

by a Perfect Creator 

and so

in the best way I know how

I wait...

for what it is

that is meant to come.

What are you waiting for my lovelies?
