Miracles

My heart is here.
How the days ebb and flow like a fresh wind.
Finding grace in today.
Finding beauty in the now.

Encountering the Divine from within
Prompts my heart to skip a beat.
Each time I recognize
I am part of something whole - so much bigger than the self.

Desiring a sense of closeness
Peace of the mind
As the clouds above make magic
Effortlessly at ease.

How I find such calm in the stillness
My thoughts become waves
As they crash and rise up again
Resilience in its purest form.

I don’t want to know about your life at work
I want to know what makes you feel most alive
The moments when you feel most pure
In the spaces you feel at home.

Allowing the sunlight to echo off my face
I feel the most seen.
Immersed in nature I allow myself to be found
Belonging to a world needing to heal.

My eyes fixate on the simple things
The flowers swaying in the wind
Chalk carved into the sidewalk
Messages from God.

Being here is a gift.
Savoring, not saving.
Swimming, not floating.
My soul has become one.
