The Benefits of Being Still

Sitting

keeping your distance
as he flies a kite
for the very first time
holding tight
to the string
for some
such a little thing

for you

the kind of normal
you only get to taste
every once in a little while

effortlessly

he outruns the wind

unknowingly

filling you with love

and light

as you try to capture

his essence

through a lens

Sometimes

the very best thing

about being on the sidelines

is having a front row seat

quietly watching

as some of

God's

greatest gifts

are

hard at work

giving you reason

to believe

kite flying

is better
