Hear Me Speak

First attempt with written word.

what a pleasure it is

to listen to birds

calling

in silence.

a cloud of breath

suddenly emerging

in front of my eyes

invites me back

to the present moment.

i want to live my life fully.

i whispered to my dog

while she sniffs a leaf

with more attentiveness

than my little human brain 

can only wish to master one day.

perhaps i need someone to witness

that i really mean it.
