A Nook and a Storybook

Every morning I rise grateful to be alive and in my movements from sleep to waking each step is blessed by the newest day God might provide, and I embrace another chance, never oblivious of it's making. With coffee in hand, I wander through the garden grateful of each presented wonder and I slip into the crevices unhardened to a comfy rocking chair hidden beneath the holly it's under. There safely wrapped in nature and its innocence I take in the sun and breathe in fresh clean air offering my silent prayer and open penitence then flip the pages of the bible for guidance found there. This little hollow is my refuge, my very own private nook of where I find hope and peace and solitude grateful for life and words of this inspired revered book that guides my life, my actions and my very attitude. This is the best of all places I can be within my secluded safe protected nook wherein I spend my mornings joyous and free and for nothing more gifted do I look. / 4/30/2016
