Today birthed fresh and new. mornings are always better. anticipation, excitement wash over me; as i drink in the sunshine , color greets my gaze. green: watermelons, peppers, apples, tomatoes, okra, lettuce, herbs,cucumbers yellow: flowers, honey, corn orange: tomatoes, peppers, cantaloupe, carrots purple: eggplant, blackberries red: raspberries, tomatoes
i grasp the twenty dollars in my pocket ready to exchange it for nature's bounty. i smile and talk to the vendors as they sell me their wares. i leave; five dollars in my pocket, bags brimming, vegetables peeking out. i think i should thank them for such a great service: bringing the fruit of the earth to me, to my city.
fingers--stained purple from lunch: fresh blackberries and cool water. satisfied--i realize i am strangely content in this new city, new home, new calling, new life.
Ps 27:4 One thing I have desired from the LORD, that I will seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to pray in His temple.(MKJV)
