In search of joy

Asking and receiving

through prayer and meditation

Noticing when it’s here

with eyes open

How to step into it

by dropping all else and being fully present in the moment

To recognize it

and open my eyes and heart wide

To feel it deep within my being

and stay with it as long as possible

To embrace it with my whole being

as I would any friend or loved one

As if … I were a child again

Sunday morning in June

No agendaThe Trail

Mass last night

the day is a blank canvas

long awaited

the birds are singing

the frog is silent

a misty morning in June

the trail is calling

like a prayer

Come walk in the wood

I reply I’ll be there soon.
