It’s so simple

It’s so simple

The barely visible flutter of wings from the not-yet-gold finch

The perfect cup of coffee

A warm room in which to sit, to breathe

Breath

Shadow play on snow and grass

Stillness

Thinning of the clouds

Flicker of the candle flame

Resting Earth

Silence

Why do I worry?

When a pause, a noticing

Brings me such mystery. Such joy.
