Been away for a while.

I've been away for a bit. Just watching the world and thinking. Seeing things and taking pictures trying to capture them. I felt a need to write something so.....

A DAY

A day.
Eleven parts hot, twelve parts cool.
Seductive.
Things were born today,
nothing died.
A sky of dark blue gel with
Cotton, carefully placed,
to give contrast and a focal point
to a sky that went on forever.

Forever,
today it had value.
Not a philosophical abstract;
It measured the length of a moment.
That moment.
This moment.
There I stood
encircled by the enchanting breeze.
Touched, caressed and enchanted.
Notions of infidelity crossed my mind
as if I were in the arms of some silken mistress
stealing some secret moment
known only to my spirit.

I was there.
Some priestly Druid
paying tribute to my God,
my earth.
Drinking deeply from the communal cup
and rejoicing.
I was alive
and the world and I conversed
for that moment.

And quietly we parted.
