Wading in the residue
of this world we now live in,
I try to keep my focus
on the world outdoors.
I much prefer wading in
clear mountain streams
than the digital streaming
on the flooded internet.
Wading the shallows
of lakes and rivers,
Great Blue Herons survive
on patience and persistence.
God, please grant me these traits,
as I watch and witness
with wonder and gratitude
your countless gifts of creation.
