I WILL NOT HURRY
I will not hurry through this day!
Lord, I will listen by the way,
To humming bees and singing birds,
To speaking trees and friendly words;
And for the moments in between
Seek glimpses of Thy great Unseen.
I will not hurry through this day;
I will take time to think and pray;
I will look up into the sky,
Where fleecy clouds and swallows fly;
And somewhere in the day, maybe
I will catch whispers, Lord, from Thee!
-Ralph Spaulding Cushman

I love the Ralph S. Cushman piece so much. I would like it posted on my wall as a reminder.

This is a timely read, for having spent six weeks away from home I am feeling a great need not to hurry but to appreciate my home and garden anew.

Welcome home, Anne! I’ve been missing you. I’m sure you are ready to sink back into your unhurried life. Rest well.
