10. A Day’s Observations

Puddles large enough for waves and shorelines

Mud deep enough for squishing and sticking

Slush messy enough to splash and to soak

Snowflakes brave enough to keep falling and falling

Tree buds determined enough to poke and to push

Pussy willows demure enough for unassuming adornment and allure

Sun warm enough to foster hope and joy.

Whether welcomed or unwanted,
My day was filled with all things ordinary and extraordinary.
