I stopped to smell a flower today
the fragrance lightly floating by
subtly captured my attention
drawing me irresistibly toward it
mind numbed by its presence
to the worries of the day ahead
settling into a simpler place
a world of peace and comfort
such a small thing as a flower
a brief moment spent enjoying
the memory my companion
through the rest of the day
too often I pass flowers by
thinking of sneezes if at all
far to rare are these moments
time I slowed down once more
tomorrow I need to stop and smell a flower......
