CELEBRATION

My granddog, Chloe,

who cant believe the cupcake

coming at her

The sun comes up every morning,

and the trees unfurl their arms 

and sway in celebration.

The miracle of those big green waves,

rolling in, rolling out,

is the definition of everness.

And we?

Our eyes open, amazed,

at the miracle of

another day of loving.

We look to the sky,

where the great birds are wheeling.

Our hearts swell

in gratitude, in hopefulness,

in reverence,

in one long moment

of “Thank You!”

Each morning,

a celebration.

Each evening,

thankfulness,

and rest.

Chloe's sister, Cali, a rescue from

a kill shelter in California, who celebrates

her new life, with gratitude, every day.

As do I.
