One Morning

One day at a time Shannon, that's all you can do As I watched the sunrise over the pasture this morning, I took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Absorb this moment Shannon it is here only briefly Sipping my coffee I listened to birds gradually realizing it was time to eat and feed their young. You are here for a purpose whether you realize what that purpose is or not Soaking in the luke-warm bubble bath that was drawn for me I closed my eyes and allowed the fragrance to envelope me. Many lives have been touched by you, and many yet to come Looking out of the window watching the world go by, I realize how small my burdens are and know that I am fortunate to have my life as it is right now.
