Arrested by Beauty
Stopped in my tracks to notice
My senses alive
To see, to listen, to smell, to touch, to taste
These gifts all around
I am taking beauty personally today
As my beloved and I slowly walk this town
The bald eagle shows off his mighty wing span
The chickadees flitting from one tree to another
With their happy chirps
The autumn leaves in full display calling out:
“Look at me, look at me!”
I brush my fingers through the fragrant lavender
I breathe in the fresh sea air and let the sound
Of waves wash over me
Later the taste of fish tacos caps off our walk
This walking, this paying attention
Calms me, refreshes my spirit,
Brings me home to my body
Today I am alive, happy and grateful







Wonderful walk! Such simple joys!
Thank you Mary!
Love it Mama!
