A moment of mindfulness

As I wake today,
I momentarily sit
And just be mindful.

I look at the bed
And see the doona cover;
It has come open.

There’s a clear button
That holds the top and bottom
Fabric together.

The colour is a
Mix of light blue and light grey;
Quite a calming hue.

The cover’s crumpled
As I just got out of bed;
Time to get going!

Throughout the day I
Can think of the bedspread and
Practise mindfulness.

I like to experiment with different forms of poetry, as well as some flash fiction.
