Tomorrow Will Be a Writing Day

Tomorrow, I believe, will be a writing day,
Not a lawn-mowing day,
Not a shopping day, or a bill-paying day,
Not a car-fixing, computing, or piano-p;aying day,
Not a day of puttering or sputtering around town
Gathering up supplies and groceries,
Getting gas or oil, galumphing around on foot or bike,
Clearing the mind,
Refreshing the goals, reflecting upon what has been or what may be,
Seeking answers—
And seeking answers—
Forever seeking, never quite finding, answers—
Those things are for every other day, but
Not for tomorrow, for
Tomorrow, I believe, will be a writing day.
Tomorrow will be a writing day because
I am in voice!
At last in voice!
Finally surprised to be in glorious, prodigal voice!
