Grounded In The Moment


I am seeing gray
Clouds outside window
Through the opened blinds
Bare oak tree swayed by
The brisk breeze, traffic

I feel a draft
Paper's surface
The round ink pen
My faint heartbeat

Husband's snores
Heat clicks off
Trucks' engines
 
Powder
Coffee

Grits

lifediminished hexaverse

Oh yess, your own take on the diminished hexaverse form, how interesting and unique! You've showed us and made us feel everything you were feeling while also the aromas that you inhaled... I honestly enjoyed participating in this contest, it was challenging yet gave me a moment to stay grounded and reflect upon my surroundings. Sending you love and light always, best wishes to you ~

Thank you, IE. Yes, I felt grounded in the moment in time. Sometimes in our lives we need to be grounded just a moment in time to relieve stress or get back focused. I am going to judge the contest. Sara K
