Every Atom | No. 108
Introduction to Every Atom by project curator Brian Clements
Sitting still
on a blue sky afternoon
watching trees sway in the breeze
listening to the hawk's cry.
Dreaming of the earth around me
the part which lies within me
I fear not the life I lead
nor the death bound to come
I am presented each day
with the miracle that surrounds me.
Whether pushing the people's mail
tangling with the soft chords
of the ukulele
or smiling with the laughter
of growing grandchildren
simplicity begins
in my inner soul
spreading out
to a welcoming world.
I weave an intricate tapestry
made honest
by wonder, joy, and love
a miracle of life
blessed to find a way
each and every day.
