morning glory!
the well bucket-entangled,
I ask for water

She sits draped in fleece admiring a nature’s morning splendour. The eye could capture only hundreds of shades and nuances…a human lens shooting in slow motion. She smiles with pride. One must  witness the slightest changes to appreciate the glory of it all; she felt lured, this frigid morning, by an omnipresence. In reverent silence, she recites her mantra before this sacred panorama.

Morning glories
dawn unfolds such beauty
the old nun prays

the old nun prays
loving memories soothe
dusk awaits
