Praying

Praying
It doesn’t have to be
the blue iris, it could be
weeds in a vacant lot, or a few
small stones; just
pay attention, then patch
a few words together and don’t try
to make them elaborate, this isn’t
a contest but the doorway
into thanks, and a silence in which
another voice may speak.
-Mary Oliver 

Though the cherry blossoms at UW are gone,
 there are still a few around town that are spectacular- 
definitely a doorway into thanks.
