Valued and Savored

Awareness is growing. 

Something lingers beyond my reach.

The desire for understanding is awakening.

I’m alert. I’m watching.  I’m listening. I’m intrigued.

And I’m fighting my natural tendency

of becoming too busy

to remember that I’m waiting

for a secret to be revealed.

Impatience threatens to destroy the gift before it is unwrapped.

Delightful expectations should be passionately valued and savored.

It is time to pray for eyes that see, ears that hear, 

and a heart that is open to receive wisdom.
