Graceful Moments

Graceful Moments

      It was a cold January morning as sun rays slipped through the over the sink kitchen window.

      Christmas paper- whites you had planted sat on the sill next to my early day thoughts.

      Small white petals were luminous in the sunlight as water for tea warmed on the stove .

I existed in a moment of loving you and blessed the day of our meeting.

Your soft and gentle ways bring the scent of springtime straight through winter's
glaze.

Moments like these linger in the air of our cottage home where the warmth of love slides into solitary breaths of grace.
