March Sabbatical
Each year I look forward to the month of March;
Taking a sabbatical from my normal working life.
It is a time of exploration into the depths of Fred;
Looking into the spirit and becoming more whole.
This is a time of repair and restoration for my soul,
As the remainder of the year blasts away at my fortress.
But the month of March is a time of peace for my heart;
A time when I look squarely into my own eyes and truly see.
This March Sabbatical is something that brings peace;
My soul cries out for this annual release as I become a butterfly.
I stretch out my beautiful wings and I fly the unexplored skies,
I seek adventure as well as fulfillment from my month long walk.
I am one with the universe, bringing peace to my heart and soul;
Love flushes the staleness from my body and brings a newness.
A new fresh life is once again alive within this vessel of clay;
Power surges through the loins of my life force creating beauty.
I need this time away from the everyday existence of my life;
The inner explorer spirit of Lewis and Clark touches me.
I breathe with a youthfulness once again, as I remember the why;
Five years ago this March was the passing of Dad into the next realm.
I saw this passage from a close first hand experience of joy;
His body destroyed by cancer and weakened by the treatments.
This is a time of renewal, of new creation, of metamorphosis of my soul;
The March Sabbatical is here again as I release into the peace.
