the sun paints the morning sky
filling its daily canvas with hues
of pink and orange and red
a masterpiece on display for all to see
an open invitation for all who choose
to say yes and to stop and to look
there is beauty in daily life
profundity waiting to be unearthed
like treasure hidden in a field
each day a showcase of mystery
each moment an invitation to
engage the holiness of the ordinary
which is not really ordinary at all
but it must first
be recognized
in order to be seen
and it must be seen
in order to be
fully appreciated
but that takes time
it is hard to pay attention on the run
it is difficult to notice in a hurry
slowing down is a key element
savoring only happens slowly
if we want to fully taste
all that the now has to offer
it will require something of us
are we willing to give that something
