Thank you for the Sun
Thank you for warm beams
Thank you for the birds
As they sing from the trees
Thank you for the flowers
And the light and gentle breeze
Thank you for this food
That’s been blessed by the bees
ConTENTedness
In the comfort of my own bed
I’m not comfortable
In my claustrophobic tent, though
I was content.
Releasing happy sighs
I didn’t know I had
Until other people heard
And smiled at my unspoken word.
In that tent
In the jungle
In Africa
I was at peace
For three weeks
In my skin
In this life
In that tent.
So. far. away.
