Grace
Grace gives me a day too beautifulI had thought to stay indoors
and yet washing my dishes
straightening the shelves
finally throwing out the wilted onions
shrunken garlic cloves
I discover
I am happy
to be inside
looking out.
This, I think,
is wealth.
Just this choosing
of how
a beautiful day
is spent.

That's beautiful.

night while you were doing the house cleaning for Easter.
Happy to be inside looking out huh? :)
