Graced (Tanka)

by Maureen Glaude

Being graced by
the start
of hummingbirds at the feeder
or the flow of a fine, fresh poem —
miracles

WOW. This is awesome. My pick for POTD. I've read some other fantastic ones too, but the simplicity of the way you stated something I feel as well, snagged it. Awesome. Simply awesome.

A really fine capture of some of life's simple and small miracles. We are blessed to be able to take joy in such things as these. ---> Favs

The miraculous in the common indeed! You've said it succinctly and beautifully.
