Not quite winter,
but getting close.
A new day with
expectations of cold.
Mister sun surprised us
and brought us light;
bright light, almost blinding
When it highlighted a piece of art
It brought out colors
you didn’t know existed.
The power and surprise
of nature is awesome.
In many ways we imitate nature.
We can outshine our normal selves
often surprising others and
actually lifting them.
Shouldn’t that be the story of life?
We wake up, pray and then
begin to excel continually.
What a change it would bring.
A way to improve the world.
Just one step at a time,
one person at a time and
one day after another.
It is close to winter, but
a good time to start.
Let us get started.
It will be a long winter,
but then a glorious spring.
Looking back we will see that
we gave up ourselves to something bigger
Isn’t that the way it should be?
