I am here
Staring at the fragmented chaos of the past
Uncertain, unsure and completely unacquainted with the future,
yet
Firmly, entirely, and deeply rooted in this presence, this breath,
This moment!
Each of the three divinely intertwined
And at the same time
Absent of relation or relevance to the others purpose.
When I walk obscured wearing the spectacles of the past,
The future falters, and
The moment’s escape unnoticed, unappreciated
Misplaced.
When the illusions of the future rush me towards the
Infinite odds of the waterfalls edge,
Presence succumbs in the un-swimmable rapids
And drowns unnoticed.
But in this moment with
Lungs filled
Heart Pounding
Skin tingling
Emotions ablaze
And all of life expressing
The richness and rewards of the soul bestows
gratitude thrives
presence dawns
