A sequel to Walt Whitman’s MIRACLES

What stranger miracles are there?
The pine trees looking into my window – so strong and supportive…
Watering the plants in the morning…
Discovering that fog is so wet, and that it waters all the flowers in the canyon…
“Patient Healing” message from the Angel Cards…
Being patient with my healing…
And being so impatient with my healing…
Noticing that my practice is more mindful than before…
Being upset that my practice isn’t as easy and strong as before…
Poetry coming into my life, and asking me to wake up and feel again!..
Signing Hallelujah along with Lenard Cohen in my car…
And really meaning for it to be a prayer…
What stranger miracles are there?
~ Sofia Ageyeva, 2016
Update from 2020
My latest Miracle is Sun powered Candle. I had days when I went to work and forgot a real candle burning. I had miracles that my house didn’t get burned out and the candle was still burning when I came back. Yet… I like my Sun-powered “Candle” today.
