The best thing about Sunday is freedom-
the freedom to think about anything,
nothing, everything and more
but only after Saturday’s errands,
catching up and chores.
It takes all of Saturday to unwind,
detox, relax, reset, refresh and
cut the cord to work and worry,
convince myself to slow my steps,
there simply is no need to hurry.
Stepping into nature is my worship,
sharing moments with Creation,
looking to the morning sky
where things with wings,
bright angel beings, thrill me,
fill me as they sing and flit and fly.
Like fire and flame,
his presence came.
Peck, peck, peck,
this tree I’ll wreck
And happy, he
the bluebird be.
We shared a look,
and my soul shook.
I wept before
his honesty.
“You lookin’ at me?”
he quipped and stood his ground,
challenging anyone around.
(i dared not make a sound…)
I am renewed, uplifted, amazed!
Grace, beauty, life, joy-
unfolding before me as I gazed.
In all I hear and all I see-
the message clear is harmony.

Oooooh, that bubble! Gorgeous. You captured some beautiful bird photos. I can almost hear them singing. Lol. My favorite is, •••you looking at me?••• Nice verse too.
I know winter isn’t done with us yet, but I’m sure done with winter! I need to hear birds singing again and I want to see plants poking up and be able to open windows in this house and let in fresh air.
Thanks for the touch of spring!! 😃

That’s the part I always forget about gardeners. You walk away from this when it starts to get cold. By the end of January, it has been months.
