Life: listed

I used to think that making lists was a tragic way to live. Even though I loved writing them, I wanted to live spontaneously enough that my life could not be listed.

Apparently I was making the wrong kind of lists.

I have caved.
I am making my list.

Ten things that make me terribly happy:

1. Smiles from strangers
2. Sun on my skin
3. Kisses and hugs from Rambo
4. Reading Harry Potter
5. Smells
6. Getting enough sleep
7. Potatoes
8. Barefeet
9. Aspen trees
10. People who save animals

love after love

The time will come when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say
sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger
who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread.
Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you all your life...

Take down the love
letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs,
the desperate notes, peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit.
Feast on your life.

~Derek Walcott
