90 minutes of retreat

I stared at this
Fountain
And hanging flowers
For an hour.

I was glad and grateful
For the hummingbird
That hovered by for a drink.

I saw his shadow first.
When he appeared it was a shock
Of joy

And there was something healing in it.

Then I walked in sunshine
to sit with Our Lady,
Mary, who always comforts me.

There, I spoke to Jesus
and gave thanks
For the breath of
Fresh air.
