Fresh Flowers 9/6/2023

Smelling fresh flowers
Allowing the fragrance
To lift me up
Into a special state
Of awareness
In this moment
Of time.

Connecting visually
With the beauty
Of Life
Admiring the colors
And texture
Of the flowers
In my hand.

How can something
So insignificant
Like daisies
Fill my heart
With joy
And happiness.

Noticing
In an instant
As the Daisy
Smiles at me
Tis a lovely
Day to be alive
And breathing.

Feeling grateful
In this specialness
As I thank God
For the small miracles
That come my way.

I choose
Everyday
To stop and
Smell
All the flowers
As a way to stay
Connected to
The Love
In life.
