A Comfortable Presence

Another week has started.

deadlines and goals take hold

of our time and our minds, and

still...life is good, life is kind.

precious moments, we always find

as soothing breezes leave them behind.

 

Outside the bedroom window,

a fine day shines on the left front

yard...a somber part on the right,

under the Honeysuckle tree, rich

with orange blossoms...the sounds

of chirping birds are a soothing

music to this peaceful moment;

it is 9:13 am...this existing silence emits

an invisible yet comfortable presence,

most appreciated, for it accompanies.
