In the vineyard

mahogany vines hang heavy

against a wide blue sky

the day spreads a feast just for us

say yes now

drink the mystery

of cedar and soil

taste the dark gloss

of plump summer fruit

know the terrain

of this generous world

What are you thankful for today? What makes your world expand?
