I can learn from a tree which has stood here for many, many years. Learn of patience and fortitude, strength and determination.
I can learn from the water which often makes its boisterous way - quickly and loudly. At other times it is a trickle - barely dampening the earth beneath it.
I can learn from the sky - so very high above me. Covering my existence with a beautiful shade of blue. Showing me the vastness of the universe and my small place within it.
I wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving.

only to stand
wherever I am
