Knowing I am Beloved

I can rebuild that shed
but the memory of Ollie falling off the roof would be lost if I did.
I see my squirrels chasing each other around my walnut tree.
I outlived both Chip and Dale.

I gaze up into the blue sky
feeling God staring at me,
sending me warmth, comfort, and vitamin D.


Every iris, clover, dandelion, clump of moss has purpose.
I relish in my sliver of nature.
Feeling Him in every teensy flea and bee.

Knowing I am beloved as I create my
own story.
