Stream Giggles

End of summer

We end our 18-mile run in the same place we always do, by a stream. I haven’t paid any attention to the stream all summer. It’s been there yet I didn’t notice—why didn’t I take the time to sit, soak my feet, and rest by the bank? Summer is almost over.

I looked at the stream listening, flowing, inviting me to come over. Felicia walked towards me, “my feet are sore.”

“Mine are too.” “Let’s put our feet in the stream.”

Thank you stream for your patience. Thank you for letting us sit and laugh with you.

Tell me that someone you will notice today and thank.

Stream giggles invites 
us to sit on the rock—legs 
dangle, wiggle toes 
laugh 
Cold water bursts 
over our feet
admiration—spirit flows.
