april 17th

Cold and blustery, the morning dropped snow onto the timid lives,

and I grumbled about the weather and the wind

until I stepped outdoors and discovered diamonds;
some scattered amongst the greens
others tucked into the folds of the monocots.

Pearls of great price easily found when sought.
Blessings abundant for open grateful hearts.

Grumbles evaporate like the april snow
when humbled by the Creator's Glory.
Pettiness dissipates
when confronted with miniscule majesty.
