Tinies

he picked them up in the woods on the mountain,
this rock museum volunteer.
teensy tiny sapphires,
no bigger than the seed pearls
in the photo above.

this morning
we met a man who
uses tweezers to mix
pollen particles
to create new dahlias.

who am i?

i am the woman
who is
slowing down
and making time
and paying close attention
to see
to create
to live in
beauty.

today’s post is part of the scintilla project.
