PORCH TIME



Love’s spirit is filling you.
Be open to receive.
Take a deep breath.
Maybe two will do.

The tasks are still done
With wider vision, maybe more fun.

Most children regularly ask why.
What causes the tide to rise?
They might wonder about clouds.
Why is blue the color of the sky?

Perhaps they have visions we miss.
As adults we go first to logic.
The answer may seem obvious to us
So we overlook the question: what’s this?

Meaning.  It’s not a fancy word.
Yet, the answer, turned over
Might cause us to soar
Like the Albatross or a backyard bird.

Ten minutes, more or less.
Be open to wisdom.
For a moment reflect and go beyond
Whatever you call “the mess.”
