Without a Doubt, You are Here

In an existence that changes like the seasons,
In a heart that beats like phases of the moon,
The only light comes from blessed moments of inspiration…
Undeniable moments of connection and clarity.

It can be through wise words, tender smiles,
Plasma, paint, or text;
It can be seeing in the eyes and actions of another, the love that can only be divine,
It can be the final turn that helps everything click into place, a focus of the senses,
It can be opening my eyes as if for the first time, and seeing the trees leaning into the wind’s embrace…

It is in these moments that I know without a doubt, You are here.

For knowing that our world still has room in it for friendships and for favors, for tearful laughter and for new beginnings,
Warms my heart and lights my path more than any priest or pious prayer.

You are with me now.
When there is nothing more vital than to see and feel this very moment,
When there is no greater joy than the air in my lungs, and
No greater beauty than the blades of grass in the sunlight.
