God's Message

My Prayer The smell of strong coffee wafts lingering through the house. Black with a spit of cream sweetener and my first sip will open my eyes. Wide and glad for the day the later rise of morning sun Coolness waits expected longed for after a heat wave Spinners flow right then left as breezes flow graceful singing. The time is full of memory more full of now and what lays in wait The passing of the years is too quick so for the moment the hours dance with light and joy God laughs and whispers. God’s Message I told you I would give you time to live in the moment to breathe in its beauty of every flower to smell the grass after rain to hear birdsong and squirrel chatter to hum to the waterfall splash to feel the heartbeat of the world before I call you home. 8/17/2016

I love this. And not being funny, I am so very grateful for the very coffee I am drinking now. It is a luxury, which I do not often say 'thank you' for. Thank you.
