It was a tiring day. I sat and reminded myself of a time I felt less tired. I took this picture that day.
I sit
I walk.
In the greater scheme
What does it mean?
Sunlight warms face
Gentle breeze cools air.
Fresh morning;
Comfortable afternoon.
Feel one with Nature
Deep roots.
Supported by ground;
Enveloped by all around.
Afresh, like a beginner;
Feel that which was always there.
See the world;
Feel it for the first time.
I find a place;
A place at the table of life.

About ivonprefontaine
I have been an educator for almost 20 years. Prior to that, I worked in private industry for 15 years, then returned to university to earn my education degree. For the past 11 years, I have been a co-creator of learning in a unique, progressive, alternative educational school of choice. Currently, I am engaged in a doctoral program at Gonzaga University in Spokane. A main theme in my learning there has been the roles of systems thinking, complexity theory, and organizational theory, and how they apply to education generally and the learning environment I share with students, parents, and colleagues.
The second read-through really did it for me. Short but quite thought provoking. I think we all need to feel at one with nature and the world sometimes and it’s sad that so many people don’t take the time to do that.
I tell my students that poetry is subject to many readings and many listenings. Thank you for stopping and commenting.
No, thank you for writing, I am merely a sponge that absorbs the beauty I find around me, hoping to create some for myself too. It’s been a pleasure reading it and I am looking through some of your other work as we speak
