Noticing is inspiring.
Perhaps it’s only inspiring
when you’re really noticing
all lives living.
Mt. Sopris with the sun shining down
Giving alpenglow
The Roaring Fork River is pretty to look at
Amazing to see the little
ice floes
White House Pizza specialties on Mondays
Are very good
People are awake, and it’s good to be awake
So we know what’s going on in the world
Hearing people and what they’ve done
And what they deal with
Makes for a nice day when you look around
To see what people are up to, as they are in and out
I saw ducks down by the river, about 15 of them, or 10
Charlie and I saw a bear who comes around
The trees look like dinosaurs on the flattops
When my son and I look up from our porch
I love Mt. Sopris, to stand and look at
The different lights that shine on it
Watching the shadows move along the mountain
There is a shadow of a gorilla on Mt. Sopris
There is a buffalo reflected
On the Aspen side of
Mt. Sopris
It’s not snowing, and I’m waiting for some now
I watch the whole mountain
In front of me in Glenwood
And the sun comes around the corner of the it
Then pops! It’s like the birth of the sun
I enjoy the love of all
It’s so unique, and you can look and smile
And say we’ll get there, one way or another
There ain’t no snow, it’s way too hot
This southerner loves it, just the right temperature
It was cool and beautiful when I walked along the river
Exquisite!
I saw a bald eagle fly down the river
We must remember
All the things we’re doing here
And all the days when none of this was here
The people who brought this
Here were overwhelmed
And had to crawl and set up on the dirt
Don’t worry, we’re taking care
All the people here in the mountains
Together, a beautiful sight
I say thank you every day
Noticing is inspiring.
Perhaps it’s only inspiring
when you’re really noticing
all lives living.
