I adore this poem. It speaks to me in the same manner as Mary Oliver’s “Don’t Hesitate” poem… after all, joy was not meant to be a crumb.
I too feel your stress and despondency at the state of the world, but in the same breath I remember to soak up those little moments of awe. For me, it’s being buzzed by a hummingbird, or the sun glimmering through the trees. In those moments, I am grateful to truly be in that moment ❤️
Thank you! I needed that poem today.
