Reaching For Now

February 22, 2010 by Rieshy

Now slowly stopping, waiting,

Impatience with a hijacked brain; always waiting,

Slowing, stopping, breathing.

Patience teaching, patience reaching.

Slowly seeing, breathing; being,

Now.

As a bloggy gift this Tuesday- go to Tuesdays Unwrapped.

This is part of Steady Mom's 30 minute challenge. This post took 20 minutes + a 40 minute walk .
