A Life Well Spent
Is built on small accomplishments
As much
As it is on the large ones
And aren't the large
Built upon the small anyway?
My small accomplishment
Is my morning routine
Meditation
Gratitude
Writing
And when I'm feeling
Particularly good
(Which I haven't been
For quite a while now)
Exercise.
Basically,
If I can write a verse
And schedule my send
I know the day
Is headed
In the right direction.
Conversely,
I know if I haven't
My priorities for the day
Have already been compromised.
We build our poems
One day at a time
One verse at a time
But what we're building
Is so much larger
Is it not?
