maybe the secret . is learning how to exist . alone together
a quiet moment . amid the chaos, allows . for true reflection
there are odd moments . of clarity that seem to . make things less certain
if the conditions . do not favor growth, the tree . waits until they do
there are some mornings . when we can sit quietly . with nothing to say
a bright sunny day . doesn’t tell the whole story . of what is in store
it isn’t often . that we see a vantage point . other than our own
only an adult . can look at nature’s beauty . as a hinderance
in facing the day . it can help to look sideways . and find the absurd
there is a kindness . in a well-shoveled sidewalk . after a snowstorm
