Come tomorrow
I have tidied up my strings
and arranged the chairs
I have made peanut cookies
without gluten
without milk
I have made space for your work baskets
amongst my things
I will hug you all
hard at the top of the stairs
I will heat my cold metal table
from below with a gentle warmth
ready for our show and tell
of a month's worth of creating
and travelling and planning
and taking your courage out with you
for every walk
come tomorrow I will be
so pleased to see you
Now, after spending this time here with you, I'll always be glad to see you, Mikaela! And yes, the whole crew.
