Miracles?

Miracles, what are they truly?
Turning water into wine?
Walking on water, surely?
Does it only have to be divine?
Surviving a horrific crash?
Raising someone who was dead?
A person who disappears in a flash?
Feeding many with a loaf of bread?

In this day and age,
We forever search for signs.
It does not take a sage,
To know God's designs.

For me it is a miracle to be alive.
To have been given a beautiful daughter.
To be able to love and live.
To share in others laughter.
To awake to see the sunrise,
To enjoy nature's wonders.
To witness evenings ritual demise.
To be able to learn from our blunders.

In short, a miracle is everything,
Each and every experience,
No matter how mundane, is amazing,
It is us, who treat Life, with indifference.

Open your eyes, to the miracle of life.
It is all around you!

Cold whetted steel
Pierces my heart,
