One Frosty Morning

1 Comment

Diamonds in the grass,

frosted spider webs in a roadside ditch,

weeping willow branches a tender green.

 

What else is there on my path,

seldom noticed but there,

waiting to reveal itself?

 

Often it is the unexpected

that brings us joy.

A wrong turn, a red stoplight,

children laughing,

a single daffodil pushing up.

Embrace them all!
