Letter 4459
This simple walkway from my back door to the shed contains multitudes.
A forest growing between the pavers.
Shade, cool, sun, warmth.
A turning awash with a beam only at noon.
Doors on either end.
❖
I knew of all this yesterday.
Today I go again to the shed. What will I discover on the short way?
Consider:
Can I have wonder today?
