This Moment is My Life

Today I cried while gazing at a wild flower

Overwhelmed by it’s beauty and grace

I stared amidst a forest vast and free

Pine, Oak, Juniper; an array of shades and hue

Overhead I watched four vultures in flight

Wings spread amidst cotton candy clouds of white

I heard my name called upon the wind

Before the gentle breeze sweetly kissed my cheek

I inhaled deeply all this beauty beholden to none

I stretched my neck towards the heavens

For this life is vast beautiful

And I am forever grateful in this moment

For this moment is my life
