Look Up!

Outside 

Chill air, warm coffee,

Nose to the phone,

Weather, email,

Bad news and Wordle,

Something said, 

Look up!

Tall green trees,

Golden in the dawn,

Caught my eyes,

Caught my breath - 

Air so fresh!

Spirit renewed,

I’ll head into the day,

My learning

Re- learning:

Look up!!

I toast the trees

With a grateful 

Smile.
