FIELDS OF DIAMONDS

What a privilege

to freely walk
in the solitude of snow.


To see the ground covered with diamonds,
to think your own thoughts,
and to know all is well in your life.

To see a bird take wing
and marvel how its tiny body
can withstand
the chills of winter.

How reassuring to know
that when you return to your house
the wonderful aroma of fresh brewed coffee
will meet your nostrils
and you can wrap your hands
around the mug
and feel its warmth.

All is right
in our little corner
of the world
and we love our life.

XOXO
Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh and Java
