Miracles Revealed

By Brookshire McDonald

With winter and Co-Vid

All creeping behind,

We’re emerging daily

With Spring in mind.

The calendar reveals

April is before us now.

It’s “Write a poem month,”

So I’ll begin somehow.

It’s such an awakening

After all the blight

To hear the birds singing

And to feel the sunlight.

I know some gave up resolutions

They did make;

But there are plenty of hours

For some to retake.

It’s time to be kind to yourself

And to others, too.

Spring can be a wonderful

Outlet for you.

Look around each day

As the moments go on

Miracles you’ll see

If you get off your phone.

Take time to say

A kind word or two.

Lend a hand

To more than a few.

If nothing works, a smile shared

Will make someone’s day

Even if not a word

You do say.

So get busy; go ahead;

The limit is the skies

You’ll see miracles come

Right before your eyes!
