Still the day

There should not be a moment that passes from which we cannot take time to reflect and find inspiration from all that surrounds, because it will soon be gone from our sight, so enjoy it all while you can.

Still, the day is still.
The cool, light blue screen of sky offers
Hope.
Morning sun bakes icing cake shapes from frosted roofs.

Sparrows twitch among spartan privet hedges,
Little brown jobbies in search of breakfast,
To break the fast of a cold winter’s night,
To sustain life, for one more day.

Waking is a gift.
Being awake to our present
And our presence
Presents wealth.

Rest a while in the stillness of your mind.
