Reposting this without the photo. I noticed that those posts I did during the early years have more meaning and more reflective of how life is. Maybe it’s because this is a life of second chances.
I sat there waiting
for the morning sunlight.
Then she came and perched atop
our bare avocado tree.
I listened to her sweet rendition –
a tweet, a song probably.
As if sensing that I was watching,
she quickly flew away.
And I was left
With a tepid cup of coffee.
Thinking –
I wish life could be this simple.
No extra baggage to carry.
Just this –
a sweet melodious song
a bird in flight
unmindful of what she left behind
but just enjoying what the morning brings
and what she can find
and discover beyond.
And I sit here
still….
