Pause ---for light thought



Blame my father for illuminating the morning skies, saffron sails billowing intense blood orange/fuscia with hints of indigo momentarily captured in real time. Light, a moment that eludes most of us that rise daily, work on our minds, missing the brilliance of God's creation for us. Our five senses have a new years resolution for you.....to use them. Crunching of snow beneath the tires. Lift of a backyard bird pleading for a mate, neighbors coffee wafting across hedges, hands forming snowballs, drinking cold mountain fed waters, and frosted willows begging to be photographed.

Living room perched watching clouds configure, deconstruct, compose sweeping melodies, is grace I'll never take for granted. Minutes pass admiring the aqua marine ebb and flow onto the stage expanding, enveloping my frame deepening my breath to know this might be my last. Blinding light forces sheer curtains to only transmit Christmas lights in minute bursts of white light moving through a prism.

Luxury, a selfish entity that I cherish yearning so deeply to envelop into my being.

The late afternoon pillows grey slate gently rolling over coral palates seeping opal hues at the ends
bringing warmth after a satisfying ski day taking the last run with the ski guides looking into the sky yearning to trap that essence into a bottle. Now you can, that fleeting moment of wonder bubbling up can be reproduced for health, spiritual wealth, and clarity of the moment. Rein act your first kitten, first bike ride, holding someone's hand, kissing, knowing someone loves you....pause....and bring those sensations forth, daily, they ignite our endorphins, spark oxygen within lasting infinitely in our minds. Absorb the senses this world offers daily, in the midst of plights, take note, and rejuvenate.
