The rain falls slowly,
Tap tap tapping against my window.
A mug of coffee in my hand,
A warm fire to sit by,
A book held in my other,
Lee Maracle, I think.
A blanket draped around my shoulders,
My dog napping nearby.
Contentment,
Peace,
Feelings I haven't felt before,
Slowly swirl inside me.
Tired, but not sleepy,
Totally relaxed,
I move into the kitchen,
My book and coffee still in hand.
I stare out the window,
As the rain makes the whole world more vibrant.
The grass and trees are greener,
The blooming flowers pinker,
Calm, content,
A sigh escapes my lips.
Today is a good day.
Feeling better.
From my book 'Rising From the Ashes'
