Between Each Breath

As dawn unfolds and paints the sky,

The waking sun begins to rise.

The stars fade softly, one by one,

Like silver freckles, touched by sun.

A butterfly with gentle grace,

Drifts lightly through the open space.

An ant, so small yet full of pride,

Carries home its grain beside.

Between each breath, a silence stays,

While branches dance in windy sways.

So many moments pass unseen,

Hidden in life’s rush between.

Yet all it takes’s...a pause, a glance,

To notice beauty’s quiet dance.

Stillness calms the heart, the mind,

And in that peace, true wisdom shines.
