I decided to take a small break from writing, yet I find myself doing just that. This time I had my camera so I could document all that I have been missing.
I spent yesterday enjoying life….
I watched the snap dragons open sleepy eyes, a blast of color filling my garden.
I listened as a cardinal sang its sweet song upon my fence.
I looked up and basked in the glow that warms the land.
I cooled down with the cold, creamy goodness of frozen confection
I relaxed, breathing in the air surrounding me, taking it all in, not wanting to let go
I watched as the Sun tucked herself in for the night
I sat before the glowing embers of fire, contained within, leaping out
I marveled at the brilliant orb, a Supermoon, filling the night sky
And I contently laid my head upon my pillow, in hopes of awakening to greet a new day
I took time out from my busy day to simply enjoy and to thank God for all the beauty that quietly surrounds me, but I fail to admire because I am too busy doing everything else.
