dew diligence

A sun-filled birdsong morning, windows open and purple flowers, light filtering into every shadow. June is such a busy-bee month, I have to remind myself to stop and smell the roses, literally. My first cup of tea in the garden at dawn is my meditation, my morning pages, my daily gratitude. I drink it down and always, wish for another.

I find myself in getting-stuff-done mode, as if finally my body and my mind have both come to life after winter’s lack of ambition. I am like a plant, a tree, a flower. I need the sun on my skin and the birds to sing me awake in order to grow.

I reach for the sky and it’s there, right there, at the tips of my fingers, day and night.

And it’s enough.

    June is a month of learning for me. I have written 6 grad school papers this week, and administered educational testing to child today. My classes start next week. I look forward to July, when life slows down enough to appreciate it.

    If I were a writer I would be able to tell you how your word pictures touch the depths of my soul. Thank you.

    truly spoken. we only need the early morning, the birds choir, the touch of purple, and a seat in the garden…and all is well with the world. like you, it is my daily gratitude.
