Response Time

Natural reactions spin off
without much effort
like a bird taking flight
   the wind in the trees
      a flower that grows

Natural reactions are born
in the blink of the eye
with the first cry of a babe
  the burst of a smile
     a song that is sung.

Natural reactions are opportunities
when chance throws a curve
like a door thrown open wide
  a window pane shattered
    fresh air filling the room

“We have little power to choose what happens, 
but we have complete power on how we respond.”
~ Arianna Huffington
