I sit outside
The wind chills me
Clouds slowly fly by
Peeking at me between swaying trees
I notice some little white and pink flowers
Their beauty smiles
A dog barks in the distance
Perhaps chasing an escaping squirrel
A boy on a mini bike rushes down the road
The dog barks louder
The world is in motion
It lives, it gives
I sit outside
Quietly being, witnessing
While my silence screams
THANK YOU!
Sherry at Earthweel.com. asks us to focus on gratitude in spite of the difficulties this world is enduring. I do think it is always the perfect time to appreciate life and beauty.
(I'm responding to last week's prompt very late. Been having all sorts of technical difficulties.)
Nice to see your beautiful words Myrna...happy new year!
ReplyDeleteGratitude is a gift which keeps giving. And giving. Thanks for this beautiful reminder.
ReplyDeleteMyrna, I am so happy you wrote about gratitude. Thank you. When I clicked your link it somehow took you to my site? Not sure why......check it out and see..........you will see from my poem this has been a bit of a worrisome day in my part of the world, but thankfully all is well. So many climate crises in BC of late. It is exhausting.
