Everyday Miracles

How miraculous is it?

that every day we have the capacity

to love and be loved

to feel someone's light & express our own

to create art & unfold within it

to have the ownership of writing our own stories

to choose, change your mind, & choose again

to laugh in sync with people you love

to shed what's outgrown & plant new seeds

to sit in your own garden you've nurtured

to have equal love for both the flowers and the weeds

to understand why, after time has passed

to be here, discomfort & all.
