Being

Taking the time out to be a human being

Sitting outside in the warm evening light

Watching the birds come and go from the feeder

Dropping seeds under our chairs for the chipmunks

Be still and soon enough so much will happen.

Such a pleasant time together being with you

Not much talking except a remark now and then

Noticing what’s going on around us.

These days our life is an exercise in keeping fit

Standing balanced on one foot with arms outstretched

Leg extended to the side as we are looking in the mirror

Counting the duration as we are holding the pose.

Enjoying summertime birthdays coming around again

We have the gifts of good health and easy living.
