Wonder

magnolia blossoms are as lovely littering the ground as

cupping aloft high on the branch

you are as beautiful laying on the ground

as balancing an Excel spreadsheet

water beads are everywhere making bracelets

for your soul to slip on easily

there is a suppleness to spring soil that makes even

the sturdiest beetle slip

a hummingbird enjoys the same microscopic sip of sugar

that endeared you to mother’s milk.

the whole earth sunbathes every day of the year.

you have eaten, loved, slaughtered and cared for one another

since the molten lava cooled.

you are free to radiate about this galaxy or another

admiring the plasmatic displays.

I have seen hundreds of RVers standing along the roadside,

transfixed in silence,

gazing upon a naked moose bull,

slowly wading through the

shallow waters of the

snake river.

listen….
