Open Spaces

The world is shining in vivid colors,
such rich blue in the skies,
carried on a spring breeze...

I am caressed by the wind,
entertained by the hummingbirds,
entranced by the clouds...
moving in constant change
across the sky, as I wonder
at each flower unfolding.

This drama of nature,
reaching out to my soul,
for my spirit to drink it in...

My eyes are witness to life,
and wonder, a spiritual
blending of nature
found in these open spaces
alone and still, absorbing,
quiet, and a part of all
that is...
