how watching the sun becomes a lesson in patience and faith

 

































Patience, patience, patience, is what the sea teaches. Patience and faith.
One should lie empty, open, choiceless as a beach –waiting for a gift from the sea."
~Anne Morrow Lindberg

watching the morning sun
climb up the red brick building
as the new born purple clematis

climbs, intertwines
with the red japanese maple,
not yet touched by the sun-

whose rays now work
her magic on
the eastern side of the building

here, we see, how among trees
and bricks- patience is not learned,
but breathes the very fabric of its being
