The Wandering Gift

When there is time in the day to wander

And stop

To listen

Sit

Relax and rest
Weathered wooden back, into
Carve your body, unwind

Lingering reality

Can’t sit
Still fingers
Antsy, must search
Endlessly or else

Five Minutes

I know
They are here, they
Can’t be
Too far

Bird Calls.

To busy, life whizzing by, talking to myself

Hearing “hurry up” too many times in one day from my mouth

Looking at my boys growing up
