Morose
or stuck
or longing –
the feeling
sitting heavily
on my heart
since last Sunday…
…and then,
swifter than suddenly,
I feel the warmth of God’s love
through the open sunroof of my car,
hear the angelic voice of Susan Boyle
transmitting the Lord’s Prayer from stereo speakers,
and see the graceful wings of a red-tailed hawk
soaring across the bluest sky of my lunch hour…
…and the heaviness
lifts and dissolves
into the scents of early summer
as
I
fall
away
from
myself –
into
a moment
of
Clarity.
