Wonder

Reverb's Prompt-a-Day Blog Challenge

December 4 – Wonder. How did you cultivate a sense of wonder in your life this year? (Author: Jeffrey Davis)

Read poetry everyday.

Watched the fawns grow from silken, spotted babies to adolescents over the summer.

Wrote with friends twice a week.

When walking the dog, took my camera with me and captured close-ups of mosses, bark, fungi, and insects.

Read poetry everyday.

Gazed at the moon.

Memorized "Autumn Sonnet" by May Sarton.

Watched the birds at the birdbath and feeders outside the kitchen window.

Read poetry everyday.

Cultivate a sense of wonder by slowing down. Stop long enough to notice your breath. That's pretty wonderful, and miraculous, too.
