on a day...like today

 

on a day like today..

i'd like to quiet the world...

 

...hear only the things i want to hear;
quiet all unnecessary noise,
and soften the loud chattering

 

i'd like to watch the little miracles
laugh and play from a distance.
..and witness miniature crushes develop,

 

watch a lady with luminous silver hair;
nurture the earth,
before planting seeds...
...that will bear her favorite flowers

 

on a day like today..
i'd like to let the water
flow water over my head
....gently,
as if someone was pouring it from a basin...

let the free flowing stream...
...travel down to my fingers,
drip from my fingertips...
...and

leave my fingerprints...
imprinted in the greatness of serenity..

 

and as the water mingles at my feet..
...let the stresses of the world exit my body
on a day like today...

...i'd like to walk along sandy paths,
allow the bottom of my feet, freedom...
....to connect with the grace
of God's magnificent creation~peace..
....on a day,
like today...
