I woke up this morning, and there was something.
Something different in the smell of the coffee. A depth.
The greens hit me differently. The majesty. The lofty pine trees.
So much wisdom it powerfully gripped me. Silently, with barely a breeze.
After a bit of stretching, I caught myself invading my surroundings’ privacy. Privately.
A family of deer eating off a fallen Ponderosa tree,
There was something extraordinary in the moving image before me.
They interacted beautifully. I caught myself watching.
I grabbed a handful of bread as an offering. Bound and determined to disrupt the peaceful scene…
That wasn’t my intention, in the beginning, but my excitement compelled me.
The child in me was set on playing. She lives to be a part of things.
On to the next dream, in my mind,
they liked me for more than the bread I came bearing.
I woke up special this morning, determined to see things differently.
I started to see situations more deeply. The scent of life ripening wonderfully.
I can see it pouring into everything. I watch the doe’s chest rising and falling,
Its stomach relaxing and expanding gracefully, without question just being.
The symbolism spoke to me. I was just contemplating how I longed to walk quietly.
What a feeling to truly feel. Something you have to experience to know.
The thought of thinking something actively only to see it passing to offer a hand.
The power of thought and imagination combining.
It’s amazing the chemical reactions each being seeks
Dips and peaks, ridges and valleys. Limitless interactions over endless spectrums.
How could it not astound me and romance me into advancing?
Oh, the precious gift we keep abusing, it’s not amusing seeing it from the other side.
It’s catalyzed me. I choose to be beautiful, see beautifully, extend beautifulness.
I will play and dance my way through the games of this reality.
I grow and move and soar through the wind. Nature is my friend.
I fed it bread, and it brought me its children.
Oh little deer, what a beautiful journey.
And with this river, I’ve found flowing,
I overcome everything and submit only to Eternal things.
I only know One of these, and it rests inside everything living.
I love you, My Adonai.
Thank you for the daily bread.
The bold strength I receive today and every after.
Your grace will render me unharmed in the dens.
I know this for sure because you promised me.
Cover me in the process, protect my growing innocence.
Keep me from murderers and thieves,
If you need me to cross their paths guide my footsteps.
Deal with anything set on stealing my energy
while running with You through this valley.
I trust Your intuitive directions.
Help me hear them with more clarity.
