PAYING ATTENTION

A rainy day’s not nearly
as filling as a snowstorm
for those of us who thrive on drama.
While others are content
to sneak by with sunny days,
I like a solid smack in the face
to remind me I’m alive.
Same thing with the horizon.
An endless stretch of water
doesn’t make my soul sing
like high mountains and low clouds.
I hope He notices that I’m paying attention.
