Sometimes –
We ought to stop
And slow down
To feel the wind
Blowing clouds
Across the sky
And a butterfly
Pushed over flowers
Bent and swaying
In a field
All celebrating
The song of the Universe
Sometimes –
It’s good to listen
To Mother Earth
The creek that empties
Into the ocean
And the voices of so many birds
Sometimes –
Is probably not enough
And it is with this song
That I praise the Maker
And wish all
That sometimes –
Why not all the time
