Somethin' ain't right

“First the fish needs to say: Somethin' ain't right about this CAMEL ride...and I'm feeling so damned THIRSTY.”  ― Hafiz

Lord

on this Sabbath

let us take the time to breathe

to walk through the crispy air

of a fall morning

to see the gentle sky

coming to life

with colors

that only You could imagine

let us wonder at the trees

the clouds

the majesty of the mountains

newly crowned with snow

let us drink deeply of the smells of the earth

and may our hearts sing

at the first burst of light

when the sun finally rises

may we take each step

thoughtfully

may we come to our senses

and know

that we were not made for the chaos

the fear

the rat race

not made for TV marathons

and restless attempts to manufacture joy

but

that we were made for YOU

and for

this

one

moment
