~thankyou to begin the day~
some days i awaken to realize that i am tethered in
this incarnate shell that is grateful for the feel of the
breeze that titillates its covering we call skin, grateful
for the lenses that are recessed in ‘les tete’, capturing
the wonder of birds perched on trees then floating with
ease, the wind beneath their wings, soaring with ease
under the cottons hanging from the azure canvas above,
grateful of the musical sounds mine ears behold when
these feathered friends then begin to marry their voices
with each other for a choir of song
and then i realize and feel something beating in my chest,
a soft and gentle cadence of rhythm that seems to heighten
when mine eyes and ears capture the sights and sounds
before me, as the big yellow fiery ball begins to rise from
the
horizon and makes all the colors of flora around me ebullient
and warm, they seem to come alive when these golden rays
lay upon their petals allowing them to display their true
beauty,
the multitude of floral colors causing a noticeable flutter
within, my ‘heart’, then followed by a calming peace that
comes o’er the whole of this incarnate shell, of where my
‘being’ resides
for today i will rise from this supine state and shall move
these
appendages to carry me outside where the aesthetic of Nature
resides and shall walk amidst its bounty of beauty when i will
then raise mine eyes to look up then around, smell the waft
of the day, feel the presence of my being in its midst and be
thankful for this pleasure, be grateful for this gift that so
many
have not the fortunes of, and if they do, are not cognizant
of it
thus disappearing by ungratefulness or that which is called
death…
~thankyou, as mine eyes close to rest~
