Dear Day

Dear Day,

I promise to laugh more

than I did yesterday,

to be beauty's most devoted witness,

to compliment and appreciate

the mundane and missing,

to stretch towards

the sun even if it

looks like its about to rain,

and to follow a friend

where ever she may lead,

and all things flying on the 'wild air,'

I promise not to expect anything

that I can't give first.

but to believe in the flow and movement

of all rivers even the unseen ones.

I promise to practice what I love

and say less about it...

play as hard as possible

seeking adventures

in the unexpected occurrences,

to believe with such immediate

and unchallenged faith,

to know nothing

but wonder is coming my way.

and

Dear Day,

consider this my prayer

of 'thank you' before...

you even begin!
