HURRY!

 

Unlike nature – unlike creation –

too often I’m in a hurry – I’m in

a rush. Flowers, babies, healings

take their time. They do. Not me.

 

A poem, a painting, a pause,

take time to figure out what

I really want to say, what I really

want to do. They do. Not me.

 

Today took a long time to arrive.

Today took a long time to get here.

Today I tried slow a bit more

I listened to what I tend to miss.

 

Good boy …. Good day…. Good life….
