PAUSE for three mindful breaths

First Notes
By Richard Greene
Though winter is with us still
the birds have begun to sing
to the cues of spring,
first a cardinal, then a wren
and now this morning in early March,
as a chill dawn pinks the sky,
the wistful fluting of a mourning dove
which, after winter’s longueurs,
when few but crows were heard,
now finds itself bestirred
to loose its song.
from Explorations (Antrim House Books, 2009).

Wishing you a mindful evening
