Two black butterflies
flitting about the treetops
Early Spring blue sky
Standing in the sun
Grateful to be alive
In the moment
Nothing else is important
Just breathing and experiencing
Thank you, Creator…
Marshal McKitrick
There is an eternity in every moment
Throughout the day, take a moment
for prayer and reflection
There is unending peace there…
=====
Deep peace rains
its misty blanket
Each time
I check in with Spirit
Rookie ‘til the end
For it’s an eternal
ever now beginning
And the “end” is actually
(let’s not mistake it for otherwise),
another beginning

A wise one said sagely
to stay in beginner’s mind
How could one not?
Since each and every single moment
is, in itself, a new beginning
Angels singing
with the mourning dove
wakes me to the new day
whispering my name
my real name…
Meanwhile
the praying mantis
is always praying
every moment
with every part of its being
Such is living in the now
In the Now
I eternally love life
I wonder…
Is enlightenment
like popcorn…?
One moment,
I’m this hard, sunny seed
Then, POP…
I’m full bloom enlightened?
If so, turn up the heat!
