apple green kitchen walls
pinecones that smell of cinnamon
bare feet walking on smooth floors
tangy greek yogurt and icy blackberries
lungs that fill and empty
sun shining through windows
mushy dog who holds my gaze
flannel and fleece
quiet and calm
hot coffee and cold milk
honey yellow pillow, sky blue chair
sunlit green leaves out my window
sore legs, new sneakers
open road out a glass door
a mind that can think and imagine
the promise of a
hot shower on new muscles
my father’s wisdom
all around me, patience
beauty, provision
good news for those I love
and all of this
on a Thursday morning
in September
in the course of one hour
in one room
of my house
who knows what I will find
when I step out the door
God walking ahead
this morning
and I’m thankful
