#12: Dream Offers Recipe for Youth
On the morning of my mother’s 75th birthday, my dreams offer advice on aging
I’m gripping a pulley handle, rolling along a guy-wire
Strung high above the ground. I’m practicing
Flips and fancy moves, suspended and soaring.
I decide I will do a flip like this
Each year on my birthday. That will keep me
Young and adventurous.
That is what I’ll do.
