Average Everyday Miracle

I saw the sun today
And the moon
The brilliant play of the clouds upon the sky
Colors, light, radiance
An average, everyday miracle
I heard a little girl laugh today
Heard birds, clocks, and people
And the wind
Resonant, melodious, rhythmic
An average, everyday miracle
I smelled a fresh-cut yard today
Barbeque in the distance
Perfumes and colognes
Fragrant, sweet, aromatic
An average, everyday miracle
I tasted a clementine today
Enjoyed coffee and sweet tea
And a meal made with a loved one
Delicious, Scrumptious, Savory
An average, everyday miracle
I felt cotton fabric today
Sand squeezing between my toes
And a hug
Smooth, fuzzy, soft
An average, everyday miracle
And the moon
The brilliant play of the clouds upon the sky
Colors, light, radiance
An average, everyday miracle

How often, in our hectic lives, do we miss these simple things that God puts in our paths for us to cherish? His love letters to us are everywhere we look. If I missed the love notes (or texts) my husband leaves me, it robs him of seeing the pleasure he has brought me. Rushing through our lives and failing to stop and "smell the roses" robs God of experiencing our joy over the beautiful things of creation.
As for myself, I am currently enraptured with a pair of hummingbirds in my back yard. I can't wait to get a feeder set outside my office window so I can watch them play! God is Great!
