As I sat on the beach, observing the gulls
The sun suddenly broke through the clouds
It spread warmth
Then it faded.
And I thought to myself,
If I was religious, and had just thought of something divine
I would have taken that as a sign of God
As a sign of encouragement
Or motivation
And as I thought this thought
The sun broke through again
Which I took as encouragement from the cosmos
To write this down
