Awakened
It is in the rhythm
And pattern
That I love so dearly
That I find solace.
In your new
Smiling faces
Like rain
Like warm showers
Like snow
Like sunshine
It is warm
And cold
And feeling all at once that
This must be
Heaven
Because the words
Are flowing out
All at once
And I cannot
Stop.
You are a ritual
An addiction
The coffee I drink
Every morning
Without fail
Bitter and black
And beautiful
Like being gently
Shook
Out of a deep sleep
It is lovely to
Wake up each morning
Knowing I will
See you again.
For I feel you
In each cup
In each sunbeam
In each blade of grass
And breeze
And written word
You make me believe that
There is life
And purpose
In each thing that
Surrounds me.
I am sure this is heaven now.
