Miracles Everywhere

All these miracles are about to drive me crazy:

My elbows, my ears, my nose, my wife’s nagging,

and the sweet darkness of the night, and this blanket existence

around my soul,

and my heart connected to the pulse of

every creature

I am afraid of the daylight

Yesterday God was

Everywhere

Throwing

Bliss

                                Rumi

eyes down I plod

feet crunching in the frozen snow

dodging bits of mud

and

manure

spread in my path

watching for ice

danger

danger

and then I stop

and look up

and breathe

miracles everywhere
